What I Love About New York

New York a concrete jungle where dreams are made of. I love New York, there is so much that I love about it I don't know where to start. I have so many favorites out of all of the wonderful, beautiful places in the world, but New York is certainly one of them. With so much to see and do it's no wonder it's called the city that never sleeps. The city has so much history, the architecture of the buildings is wonderful to look at. I love the Brownstone buildings, and how a lot of building complexes has awnings over there steps. Central Park is so lovely, if your in a helicopter flying over New York City, or from the Empire State Building or the Rockefeller Center and you see Central Park it's like a big green rectangle in the middle of the city, what a beautiful view.

New York is beautiful and something to see in the day, but seeing it in the night is a whole different story. Broadway and Time Square is stunning when it's all lit up. From the top of the Rockefeller taking in the view of all of New York is also amazing, there are so many lights and colors. The New York skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge is a must see when in New York. I love the city at night. Taking a boat tour around New York is astonishing. There is a large selection of guided tours around Manhattan that you can take. Some of them are the Sex and the City Tour, Hop-On-Hop-Off Tour, Bike Tour, Movie Tour and the Trolley Tour. On those boat tours you can see rivers, bridges and landmarks. Don't forget to visit Ellis Island to see the most famous statue, the statue of Liberty.

There are so much diversity and cultures in New York, visiting Little Italy and Chinatown is like taking an amazing trip around the world. Especially when you can go for a gondola ride in New York City, go for some Gelato in Little Italy or try some live frogs in Chinatown. Whatever it is you love when it comes to diversity and cultures, New York has all that and more. My favorite time to visit New York is in the Winter. Taking a horse and carriage ride through Central Park is so beautiful and romantic. I love it during Christmas when the city is decorated and there are big Christmas trees everywhere. People skating on the ice rink at the Rockefeller Center and just 30 meters at the side of the skating rink there is a huge Christmas tree. There is so much to say about New York that is loved, but this is what I love about New York.
