If you only have a week to visit New York I recommend of course to visit as much as possible Manhattan that although it will seem to you that you have seen almost everything or know it well, you know that not even after years you really know it deeply.
Once you have more days or have already seen the city of skyscrapers, don't forget that New York is a state and Manhattan is just a small island that is part of it. Just cross the east coast and you will find yourself at Brooklyn. Although many insist that it is a dangerous area, know that it is not really true or rather the danger there in all the big cities of the world.
Keep your eyes open and enjoy every moment as much as possible.
In Brooklyn I mainly recommend visiting Williamsburg is the part most artistic of the city, where painters, singers, musicians, stylists, etc. live or rather try to offer their works to the public. Williamsburg is the area of vintage shops, the area where old factories have been made available to emerging artists of all kinds or have become art galleries. Williamsburg is the area that must be discovered by walking in all the streets possible because you never know what wonder it holds for you.
Williamsburg is the coffee shop area where you can stop for a hot chocolate while reading a good book and at the same time the pub area where you can meet up with friends and spend a pleasant evening with music and drinks for everyone. Williamsburg is the area that borders the'East River and overlooks Manhattan, this means enjoying the sunset on the shore, eating something in the park always on the shore or maybe enjoying a romantic evening accompanied by a breathtaking view.
How to get to Brooklyn
To reach the coast take the L train get off at Bedford Avenue and take the North 6th Street up to the east River from where, if you like, the Ferry ferries depart to take you to the coast on the Manhattan side.
Where to have fun in Brooklyn
Do you want a fun evening where you can also eat and drink? Also in this area is the Brooklyn Bowl a gigantic venue where in addition to eating and drinking you can play Bowling and depending on what day it is the venue also offers concerts and live music!
Drinking craft beers in Brooklyn
Are you passionate about craft beers? At 79 North 11th street also in Williamsburg is the Brooklyn Brewery founded in 1988 is a beer factory open to the public where you can go, see how the beer is made and above all taste.
