The area of New York is one of the largest in the world. With nearly 8 million people are in New York alone, with less than 900 square miles radius, is the densest city in all of North America! After a much-anticipated debut we finally went to the Big Apple, and we were so glad that I could barely contain ourselves. Going there has been a childhood dream for us since we decided to be world travelers and see everything that the world has to offer.
The people, the lights of Times Square, Rockefeller, everything seems so exciting! This produced a big question whether What to do? What event in New York to pick up? Well, I share with you some travel tips for New York that will not break the bank! These are all an incredible experience and I would suggest doing them all if possible. Note that there is no shortage of things to do in New York. You will never have the opportunity to do everything, so do what you can, relax and enjoy what this wonderful city has to offer.
1 New York comedy clubs in the city: This is perhaps the best I can suggest if you like any comedy at all. It really works well because they have street vendors in the middle of Times Square, which does not even have to look or try to find tickets. They literally just flag down and give a very good price (only paid $ 20 for both) on the condition that you buy 2 drinks at the club. The good thing about their special, for those who do not drink alcohol you can buy any drink of your choice. Soft drinks and water were accepted and so we really can appeal to everyone who enjoys this kind of thing and the cost is very low for the reward. It was really a great moment, the comedians were fantastic and we were very glad we decided to go. Highly Recommended!
2 Times Square: I realize this must be on top of all "list", but really is an amazing spectacle. This experience is something I will never forget. The lights, people, flags, did not realize how crazy it is until you're there. I must have seen Times Square on TV a million times, but honestly it really is not the same. Spend a little time there to take in the atmosphere. There are plenty of nice places to eat but the prices of their novelty restaurants (Hard Rock Cafe, ESPN Zone, etc) are very expensive. If you want something with a very good price, check out the side streets and find the local pubs. I really recommend going at night to see it illuminated. A note to those who absolutely hate crowds of people, if you do not go to Times Square on a Friday night or Saturday, when most active. We went to both Saturday and Sunday night ... Saturday was the chaos, and Sunday was very nice and quiet in comparison:) Anyway, I enjoyed both of them in different ways.
3 Rockefeller Center: We had the pleasure of going during the month of December, so that experienced during the Christmas tree and skating rink all done at Rockefeller Center. This is also the home of the famous studies NBC (Costs $ 18.50 for the trip).
4 Central Park: One of the most famous parks in the world and the most visited park in the United States, Central Park is a wonderful place to spend an enjoyable day. Central Park is actually bigger than 2 of the smaller nations of the world, Monaco and Vatican City.
5 Consult a local New York Event: Take in a ballgame, a musical, or something in the theater! New York, really has much to offer, no matter what your hobbies or interests? You can usually find something very reasonably priced as well, depending on what you are after.
I realize that most people, New York, tends to be fairly expensive, but with these travel ideas can go and hang out really great and still not spend too much money. There is much to see, if only going to see the monuments and places like Rockefeller, Central Park and Times Square are well worth it! I really enjoyed my time just walking down the streets and taking in the atmosphere.
If you're planning to stay in Manhattan for a week or so, I suggest picking up a copy of "The New York Pass, spend the week and do everything possible. These passes are actually a very reasonable price (from $ 55.00 a day and only $ 139.99 for a period of 7 days per person) and you get Free access to literally almost everything you could want in New York .
