Statue de la Liberté, Mémorial et Musée du 11 septembre et Pont de Brooklyn
Votre première journée couvrira de nombreux grands classiques comme la Statue de la Liberté, les célèbres hot-dogs, Wall Street et le Pont de Brooklyn. Imprégnez-vous dès le départ de toute la beauté (et de la délicatesse) que New York a à offrir !
Admire the Statue of Liberty
Start your day with New York's most iconic sculpture: the Statue of Liberty. This famous landmark is one of the world’s largest statues and remains a world symbol of freedom. It is one of the top attractions in America and as impressive as you thought it would be!
Une fois que vous descendez du ferry après plusieurs heures de visites, vous aurez probablement faim. N'ayez crainte, votre première collation de la journée est juste devant vous, au bord de Battery Park.
Try a hot dog from Nathan’s Famous
You can’t go to New York without trying a famous New York style hot dog! On every corner of the streets you can find a hot dog stand, but as a first timer, we recommend trying a hot dog from Nathan’s Famous. In our opinion, they sell the best hot dogs! Make sure to order an original hot dog and some crinkle-cut fries (topped with cheese), both delicious!
Marchez vers le nord sur Broadway pendant environ 8 minutes pour arriver à la prochaine attraction (majeure) !
Stroll through Wall Street
The world-famous Wall Street is located in the heart of the Financial District, in Lower Manhattan. Make sure to stop to admire the statue of the Charging Bull, one of the most popular tourist attractions in the Financial District and a popular photo opportunity for visitors. If you think that the Financial District is boring and dull, think again! The street is steeped in history, with impressive architecture and iconic landmarks like the New York Stock Exchange. It's a bustling hub of activity, and you'll be surrounded by some of the brightest minds in business.
Votre prochaine destination est à environ 10 minutes à pied en partant de Wall Street (sur Broadway).
Visit the 9/11 Memorial & Museum
The 9/11 Memorial & Museum remembers and honors the people who were killed during the September 11 (2001) attacks and the World Trade Center Bombing (1993). It is located at the World Trade Center site, where once the Twin Towers used to stand. The museum consists of explicit image, film and sound material. It tells the story and impact of 9/11 through media, personal stories and authentic artifacts. This museum is really touching, we feel like we were different people when we left the place.
Après une visite aussi intense, nous vous recommandons de vous détendre pendant les prochaines heures. Votre marche de 15 minutes jusqu'à votre prochaine étape est un moyen parfait de tenir cette promesse.
Walk across the Brooklyn Bridge
Brooklyn Bridge is one of the most famous and recognizable landmarks of New York. You can choose to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge and enjoy the impressive skyline and views over the East River, but make sure to admire the bridge from the Dumbo neighborhood as well! A walk over the bridge takes about one hour (one way), so make sure to keep that in mind if you’re on a tight schedule.
Notre point de départ pour atteindre votre dernière destination de la journée est le parc City Hall, situé à Broadway et Chambers St. Votre promenade de 13 minutes à travers Civic Center passera en un rien de temps. Assurez-vous de faire un petit détour par le (gratuit) African Burial Ground si vous avez le temps !
End your day in Chinatown
End your first day in the Chinatown neighborhood, one of New York's coolest neighborhoods. Chinatown is a colorful and vibrant neighborhood with a rich cultural heritage. Visitors can explore the narrow streets and alleys, try authentic Chinese cuisine, and visit traditional shops selling everything from souvenirs to herbal remedies. The lively atmosphere, colorful street markets, and historic Confucius Plaza make Chinatown a unique and fascinating part of the city. It reeeeally is super cozy to walk around here and the best thing is that prices (whether in shops or restaurants) are very reasonable!
