Manhattan, New York City
New York City. The greatest city on earth. Or so many people say. I have lived near or in New York City (Queens) most of my young life. I will admit that it is an amazing city to visit. There are so many things to see and do. In addition to the many tourist spots like the Statue of Liberty, there are dozens of not so famous places to keep you busy. The best part is that you can find them just by walking around. I normally don't go to any of the tourist attractions unless I am showing a friend around. Lucky for me that happens quite often.
First stop in Manhattan, The Statue of Liberty. This was my third trip there.
