About Manhattan, New York

The land of Manna-hata. It’s supposed to mean the land of many hills. It’s hard to imagine hills since they moved so much earth to build those buildings, the new hills of Manhattan. But, the hills must have been there. It still feels like the rise of the hill is there when you travel uptown. But, the hills and valleys now are emotional. Watch “ Manhattan,” “Seinfeld,” maybe even “Sex and the City.”

Here is the greatest twentieth-century city. The subways. The buildings. Times Square. Museums. Artists. Theater. Actors. Restaurants. Central Park. The Knicks. The Rangers. The Yankees and Mets. The Jets. The Cosmos.

It’s all happening in Manhattan. Here’s something practical to do. To take a first bite of the Big Apple, purchase a two-day pass on the Gray Line All Loop Double-Decker Red Buses. Get the lay of the land and some great photographic moments from the top deck. The colorful buses follow four loops. Hop off at popular landmarks; then hop back on and continue the route. If you can only visit three landmarks in New York, the Empire State Building tops the list. Circle the open-air observatory on the 86th floor and savor 360º views of the dramatic skyline. A second must-see is the Statue of Liberty. Expect long lines if you must climb to the top or opt for a close-up look on deck with a harbor cruise or with a roundtrip ride on the Staten Island Ferry. A walk across the Brooklyn Bridge comes in as a top three must-do. Views are best walking from Brooklyn toward Manhattan . Walk at sunset and watch the sun paint a masterpiece as it drops below the horizon. When it comes to must-do’s, Manhattan has far too many to mention. One trip simply whets the appetite for another taste of the Big Apple.
