New York is perhaps the most famous city in the world, where financial institutions, numerous historical and cultural attractions, museums, shops, theaters and much more are concentrated. This is a noisy and bright city of skyscrapers and freedom, which is familiar to many from the abundance of movies and photos where the action takes place on its streets. There are as many possibilities as you can imagine. From Times Square to the darkest corner of the Bronx — the realm of extremes. From the Russian enclave in Brooklyn on Brighton Beach to the branch of South America in Queens - communities from any country in the world. The two main attractions that have long become symbols of New York are its legendary skyscrapers (for example, the Empire State Building) and the Statue of Liberty. Majestic buildings can be viewed on foot, but the other object can only be reached by ferry from Lower Manhattan.
Almost all of the most famous attractions are concentrated in Manhattan. Here are the world-famous Walt Street, where the financial life of the whole of America boils, Broadway with numerous theaters, Central Station, the most expensive street – Fifth Avenue with chic shops and restaurants, Rockefeller Center, near which a huge fir tree is installed every Christmas, the Museum Mile with world-famous museums. But the most visited place is Times Square. It is always crowded here in the middle of the working day, and at night, when the impressive neon lights turn on.
You should definitely look into other areas of the city. At least in order to feel their atmosphere, you can find a lot of interesting things in each of them. For example, the Bronx has a zoo and a botanical garden.
Each district of New York has its own parks and squares, but the most famous is undoubtedly the huge Central Park in the heart of Manhattan. This is an artificially created corner of nature in the middle of a gray concrete metropolis.
Since the city is located on several islands, some of its districts are connected by bridges, which have also become a kind of attraction of the city. The most famous, perhaps, is the Brooklyn Bridge.
New York has long gained fame as one of the most expensive cities in the world. Therefore, accommodation, food, shopping and moving around the city will cost a considerable amount. But still, it's worth visiting here at least once in your life. Someone falls in love with New York at first sight, someone begins to hate this metropolis with a crazy rhythm of life. In any case, it is impossible to treat this city indifferently.
Today, according to the universal and unanimous opinion of Americans, New York is the center of the planet and the Capital of the World. In the twenties of the XX century, New York decisively seized the initiative and became the tallest city in the world. And the higher its spires rushed, the more obvious the fact became: this is exactly where the navel of the earth is located. However, it is more legitimate to leave the last nickname for Jerusalem, but all the other high-profile titles certainly belong to the City of the Big Apple. First of all, New York is the center of world finance, the center of the business world and... the center of world affairs.
Well, then this city is in the center of world culture, world art, world fashion. world medicine and, of course, New York is the center of world tourism.
The architecture of New York speaks most expressively about the prosperity of the city and serves as a vivid example of how much art depends on business. None of the famous buildings in the history of mankind - with the exception, perhaps, of the ancient Egyptian pyramids and Gothic cathedrals of Medieval Europe - can compare with giant skyscrapers and powerful bridges, striking with the solidity of their designs, proportions, shapes, infinite variety and striking beauty. Skyscrapers turn New York into a city of panoramic views, which you will not see in any other city in the world.
