the big apple 🍎🇺🇸

Here’s how I soaked up stunning New York — skyscraper vibes, iconic bridges, classic theaters, and beachside fun all in one trip 😎🗽 Top Spots to Visit: Empire State Building (20 W 34th St.) — Start your day high above Manhattan’s madness! The views are unreal, especially on clear mornings. Go early for shorter lines and the best shots of the skyline and city architecture. Admission is $320, but the experience totally delivers. Coney Island (Brooklyn) — Next: salty air and classic boardwalk energy. Open year-round, consider visiting on a sunny day. You’ll see locals skating, crazy amusement parks, and water features—this place feels different each season. Brooklyn Bridge (NY 10038) — I walked this historic bridge to get up-close with outdoor city life. Pro tip: Go at sunrise or sunset for incredible New York skyline pics, rivers, and pond views! Radio City Music Hall (1260 6th Ave.) — This legendary venue offers tours 9:30–17:00 (admission $314). If possible, catch a show for sweeping architecture and 1930s glam. Rockefeller Center (45 Rockefeller Plaza) — Open all day, admission $276. Loved the vision here — by day, it’s buzzing with people and art installations. The Top of the Rock is like Empire State’s rival view! Statue of Liberty — Ferries leave from Battery Park. It’s an epic snapshot (cloudy/rainy days add drama) if you want some classic outdoor cultural landscape imagery. Getting Around: Use the subway for cheap access (MetroCard is fast and easy). Walking’s the best way to spot hidden gems—bring comfy shoes! Food Tip: Try Joe’s Pizza in Greenwich Village or get a hot dog on the Coney Island boardwalk. Don’t miss street carts for classic New York eats on the go! Quick Tips: Weather can flip from sunny to rainy. Pack layers and a mini umbrella, and keep cash for random attractions or snacks. #newyorkviews #cityskyline #urbanadventure #empirestate #travelnyc
