New York travel itinerary 4 days itinerary recommendation

New York is a very big city, but you won't get lost walking the streets here, the buildings here are built compactly, the structure has its own rules, occasionally lined with age-old coffee shops, and the design of the building, and there are also very artistic atmosphere of the store.

It's big, it's modern, but it's also got its own kind of laid-back comfort, so if you want to travel to New York, take a look at this four-day New York itinerary that I've put together!

Day1 Upper West Side and Central Park→Midtown

Dedicate the morning to visiting Central Park to see the fortress-like cluster of skyscrapers surrounded by greenery. Starting at Columbus Circle, head northeast past Bethesda Fountain, Protected Waters and Strawberry Fields on the east side.

If you're bringing kids, check out the dinosaur skeleton at the American Museum of Natural History, then head to the Loeb

Boathouse to rent a rowboat for a trip on the lake.

Central Park

CentralPark

6 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. the next day

The park covers more than 800 acres of picturesque meadows, ponds, and forests, and has been called the "The Lungs of New York." It was just a swamp in the mid-19th century, and has since been carefully created into an idyllic natural landscape as history has progressed.

It is a gathering place for New Yorkers who enjoy walking, picnicking, sunbathing and playing ball in the park, as well as attending free concerts and enjoying performances of Shakespeare's plays here.

Bethesda Fountain

This neoclassical fountain is one of the largest in New York City. In the center of the fountain stands The Angel in the Water, which is supported at its base by four cherub statues. The fountain was built in 1868 by Bohemian feminist sculptor Emma

Stebbins.

ConservatoryWater

ConservatoryWater is located on the north side of the zoo, and this pond is popular during the warm season, when children put their model boats on the water to sail. There's also an Alice in Wonderland statue with mushrooms, and kids love to climb on that.

West of the waters is the Hans Christian Andersen statue, which hosts storytelling sessions on Sundays (June through September starting at 11:00 a.m.).

StrawberryFields

This garden in the shape of a tear honors the memory of John

Lennon, a former member of the Beatles, who was killed across the street at the Dakota building across the street from the Dakota.

Grand Central Terminal

5:30~2:00 the next day

New York's Grand Central Terminal has been described as New York's most stunning Beaux-Arts building. It's not just a station, it's an enchanted time machine. Its chandeliers, period marble bars and restaurants will transport you back to a time when train travel and romance were one and the same.

Central Station's ace in the hole is its lobby: the marble floors are Tennessee pink, and the old-fashioned ticket counters are made of beige Italian marble. The vaulted ceiling is divine, and its turquoise and gold-leafed frescoes depict the eight astrological constellations.

French designer Paul César Eller deliberately reversed it in the hope of depicting the galaxies from God's perspective (i.e., from the outside in).

ChryslerBuilding

Lobby Mon-Fri 8:00~18:00

The 77-story Chrysler Building makes many other skyscrapers look too staid and conservative. Designed in 1930 by William Van Alen, the building dramatically blends Art Deco and Gothic aesthetics and is decorated with sharp steel eagles.

Ave, Times Square is the extremely active heart of New York City. It's a restless, disorienting torrent of flashing lights, exaggerated billboards and raw urban energy.

NationalSeptember11Memorial&Museum

Tickets are $24

To Named for the purpose of "Reflecting on the Absence," the two giant reflecting pools symbolize hope and rebirth, remembering the thousands of lives lost in the terrorist attacks.

Beside the pools is the artistic Memorial Hall, a grand and solemn place that chronicles the major events and aftermath of that fateful day in 2001.

Entering the interior, a gentle slope points to the exhibitions in the museum's underground galleries. Downward, overhead stand two 70-foot-tall iron trident columns that were originally embedded in the North Tower's foundation.

The charred remains of the two look like giant, rusty pitchforks, silent witnesses to a former terrorist attack.

The museum has a so-called "survivor's staircase," which was used by hundreds of employees to escape the World Trade Center. There are steel pillars, the last to be dismantled from the site, decorated with messages and mementos from excavators, rescuers and victims' families.

There's also the burned-out fire truck from FDNY's Firehouse 21, which was a vivid reminder of the hell on earth.

Through videos, photographs, personal items, physical evidence and authentic recordings from the time, the Underground Gallery provides a solemn and thought-provoking exploration of the circumstances surrounding the tragedy, the events leading up to the terrorist attacks (including the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center), as well as the sadness, upliftment and hope of the people who lived in the aftermath of the events.

St. Mark's Place

StMark's Place

Undoubtedly one of New York's most famous, yet smallest, streets, St. Mark's Place is a street that is littered with historical anecdotes.

West from St. Mark's Place is Astor Place, where a strange square sculpture, affectionately known locally as the Rubik's Cube, stands alongside a crowded cross street.

The work of art, known as the Alamo, weighs 1,800 pounds (0.8 tons) and is made entirely of corrosion-resistant steel, and the area around it is a favorite gathering place for residents.

Vanguard, and delve into the soulfulness of the place.

The High Line Park

The High Line

7:00~19:00

In the early 1900s, the Meatpacking District and the area along the West Side where Chelsea is located were Manhattan's largest industrial neighborhoods, and were served by the elevated railroads that eased the burden of freight transportation on the chaotic streets below. As New York grew, those railroads were eventually abandoned.

The government then devised a plan to turn one of the tracks here into a public ****ing green space in New York.

On June 9, 2009, New York's most popular old city renovation project, High Line Park I, opened, and it's been one of the city's star attractions ever since.
