Destination New York
Gadgets|June 2017

New York is a great place to visit whatever time of the year. It’s the city that never sleeps so there is always something to do 24/7. Even if it is your first time in New York, the streets just look familiar because you’ve seen a  lot of them on TV and in movies.

Destination New York

You have to stay at least one whole week, and even then, there will still be places and activities that will have to wait until your next visit; there are just so many things to see and do in the Big Apple.

Here’s a tip: if you are flexible with the dates, hotel rates in Manhattan can be quite reasonable. Check the rates online first before you finalize your travel dates to score lower costs of admission for the same rooms, for some days are cheaper, depending on their occupancy.

When planning a trip to New York you have to balance your stay around these five activities: sight-seeing, watching live shows, visit museums, shopping and eating. And it has to be said: you need to carefully track where and how you spend your money for New York can be quite expensive if you don’t watch out.

Sightseeing

NYC is just full of famous buildings and places: many of which you’ve seen on TV. You’d want to see them up close—and many of them you can see for free—Times Square, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Rockefeller Center, the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building, the new One World Trade Center and the 911 Memorial, Central Park, etc.

If you’re a movie or TV buff, you may want to visit all of the locations from your favorite movies. But you have to be realistic in making your plans for I assure you, you cannot see all of the famous sites in just one visit.

Sightseeing in New York can be cheap if you are willing to take the subway or walk a lot. If you don’t want to walk, take the hop-on hop-offbus so you see more of the New York streets, but be ready to get stuck in traffic quite a lot.
