10. Meatpacking District

    Originally a meat wholesale district, it has become the hippest city in New York.Many of the artists and artists moved from Soho and turned their warehouses into lofts or studios.It's also home to a host of fashion brands and up-and-coming boutiques, making it a trendy destination and known as Gen X Fifth Avenue.

11. Greenwich Village

    It's the largest artist's village in America.The city has long been loved by great writers such as O'Henry and Mark Twain, as well as artists such as Andy Warhol and Lichtenstein.There are many jazz clubs that are also famous for their music.The reason why so many artists still live in the city is probably because of the liberal tradition that remains.Many gays and lesbians also live in the city.

12. SoHo

    Nine-Half and the movie Ghosts tell the whole story of the city.Many painters live there, and many galleries and studios can be seen.In recent years, however, the commercialization of art has driven up rents in Soho.The city is becoming less and less hospitable to artists' eggs.Soho was a factory and warehouse district in the late 19th century, and most of the cast iron structures remain.

13. Little Italy

    New York is a city of immigrants.It is only called a melting pot of races, and here we forget it is America.It's one of New York's most historic neighborhoods, and in ancient times was the first place German and Irish immigrants lived.There are many Italian pasta shops and cafes.In recent years, the number of Chinese immigrants has increased enough to boost the Italian quarter.

14. The National 9/11 Memorial & Museum

    It was the site of the World Trade Center, which fell on September 11, 2001.The twin towers were designed by Mr. Yamazaki, a Japanese American.It's a sad incident to recall, but New Yorkers and other human beings have overcome the odds and are constructing new mega-buildings.I ask you all to forget everything and pray for peace here.

    15 minutes here

15. Wall Street

    This was a bulwark line that bounded the Dutch settlement where the Indians originally lived and northern Manhattan.Wall Street comes from the word "bulwark wall."I heard it was just a wooden wall.No one would have thought that, over time, it would have been home to the first U.S. Capitol and later become a world financial center.You can visit the New York Stock Exchange and the Federal Hall.

    15 minutes here

16. Battery Park

    It's the southernmost park in Manhattan.There are many street performers here.From here, there is a ferry to the Statue of Liberty Island.The ferry to Staten Island also departs from next door.It was originally Fort Clinton, where cannons were lined up to intercept the Royal Navy during the Revolutionary War, and it is called Battery because of its etymology.

17. Once you've boarded the Staten Island ferry, gather at the stern.As you leave Manhattan, the skyscrapers of Wall Street emerge before you.I don't know.The skyscrapers floating in the water, they must be stunning.After a short distance, the Statue of Liberty is now on his right.Jack dreams of reaching New York City in the movie Titanic, and this is exactly what he sees.Before you go by, press the shutter the moment the goddess comes in front of you.

    60 minutes here

18. Brooklyn Bridge

    Now you can cross the magnificent Brooklyn Bridge, an art form, and see postcard-like views of Manhattan from the other side of Brooklyn (with beautiful night views).The point is to have the Brooklyn Bridge included in the photo.

19. Dumbo

    Dumbo stands for "Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass," which means "under the Manhattan Bridge."In the 1890s, Fulton, the inventor of the steam locomotive, was also the place where the Fulton Ferry was ferried until the bridge was built.At the time, it was mainly an industrial area with factories for machine building and paper box manufacturing, and warehouses for storing products, but with the subsequent hollowing out of the manufacturing industry, it became a residential area in the 1970s, and around that time it was called Dumbo.Land prices have soared since around 2000, and now it's a strange landscape of luxury apartments mixed in with stylish shops in old warehouses.
