The experience of going to New York City can be
overwhelming. You will be blown away by
the majestic monument and enormous city skyscrapers. There are many things to do in New York City, from fashion to arts or even food
and nightlife. To help you narrow down
your long list, here are the top things you must do when in this majestic city.
Visiting the Central Park
This park/concert hall/museum is nestled in Central
Manhattan. Most of the famous
destination and attraction is situated near Central Park. Other tourists use this route to go to other
notable places like the Metropolitan Museum of Art or the Guggenheim. However, to experience the life of a New
Yorker, you have to visit this 843 acre Park.
It is a good place for people-watching; some are exercising, dining, and
going to the zoo, and a whole lot more.
Almost everyone has nothing but good things to say
when visiting Central Park. Each of them
has a different experience in Central Park because there are really many things to do in New York City. You can go to Alice in Wonderland, Bethesda
Fountain, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, Loeb Boathouse, Strawberry
Fields, or Wollman Memorial Rink. You
can visit Central Park from 6 in the morning up to 1 am. If you want to enjoy Central park, you have
to go there early in the morning or evening.
Promenade Across the West Village
The streets of West Village have remained untainted
and unchanged since the 19th century. You’ll need a map and someone good at
navigating a map. Nonetheless, it could
also be nice to walk around and let your feet take you wherever you want to
go. Some of the notable places here
include Jefferson Market Courthouse, which used to be a detention center for
women ( this is where Mae West was imprisoned), and the stores and shops on
Commerce Street and Bleecker Street. You
may want to disregard the long line outside the Magnolia Bakery and focus on
more important things to do in New York
City. The long queuing is for people who want to get
a taste of cupcakes.
American Museum of Natural History
This Museum houses a massive collection of artifacts
that makes it incredible. It features shops and a cafeteria that is a major
crowd drawer. At least 32 million
artifacts can be found inside the 45 halls of this Museum. It’s just too impossible to see everything in
one day. You should try visiting the
hall of the universe, the dinosaur display, and even the Butterfly Conservatory,
which is only on display from October up to May.
The only drawback of the Museum is the crowd of people
visiting the place. But if you want to experience the site with fewer people,
you should go to this place during the weekdays of spring or late winter. You don’t want to miss this Museum when
listing your things to do in NY.
Film Forum
If you are a film lover, it is natural for you to
visit the Film Forum. You can see here
movies that you’ve never seen before.
There’s an extensive collection of different genres ranging from
thought-provoking indie films to highly acclaimed international films. Movie buff tends to put it on top of their things to do in New York list.
Empire State Building
Your vacation in New York will never be complete
without visiting the infamous Empire State Building. It is more than just a famous structure
climbed by an enormous ape. The
architectural design of this building is grandiose and breathtaking. There’s a huge possibility that you are not
the only one planning to visit the structure, so take an ounce of patience that
you may use while waiting in line. To
avoid the long queue, it is recommended to visit during lunch or dinner time.
