"i DO love new york!" New York City by TempNomad

New York City Travel Guide: 15,551 reviews and 30,943 photos

New York City is the greatest place on earth for diversity and real people. I challenge anyone to find a more true place. You will hear honest opinions and genuine compliments. I am partial to Brooklyn myself, but I love the entire city. I have tried to provide a variety of spots to visit for less money than you might spend on the typical tourist spots...good luck!

(Insert another cliche here)

Check out my NY page for a website with some downtown attractions. Lots of free concerts and fun-times to be had.

The architecture is impressive; watch for details!

There are loads of interesting gargoyles and faces and plants on the buildings. It's a free, outdoor museum!

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:lovely people, delicious food, good shopping, gorgeous bridges, looking up or down is always an adventure
  • Cons:It's wicked expensive. Central Park (most parks, really) is uncool at night.
  • In a nutshell:I'm a transplanted convert, as will you be!

    Thank you for such a wonderful tour of NYC. I never knew there was a Native American Museum there! Happy birthday from your southern Jersey neighbor!
