Getting Around

Metro
New York City's subway operates 24/7 and costs $2.75 per ride with a MetroCard, providing access to all boroughs and iconic spots like Times Square and Central Park. For a budget-friendly option, consider getting an unlimited 7-day MetroCard for $33 if you plan to ride more than 12 times a week, making it a great deal for exploring.
On Foot
Walking in New York City is free and lets you explore iconic neighborhoods like SoHo and Central Park at your own pace, but always stay alert for cyclists and taxi cabs, especially in busy areas. For the best views, take a stroll along the High Line, a 1.5-mile elevated park built on a historic freight rail line.

« I absolutely loved Chania-Town. 🌟🌊
There was a lot of delicious food, a fantastic market with exotic fruits 🍍🍇🍉 at reasonable prices (the prices might have been a bit high, but compared to what we have here, it was definitely cheaper) 😂😂.

« On the way to the island of Liberty, we unexpectedly stumbled upon the Statue of Liberty. Of course, in films, it looks much larger, but in reality, it's not that massive. We were quite surprised 😲... We were really impressed, yet the feelings of awe kept building up as we continued to gather experiences... 🌍 »

« Around that round little pond where the ducks swim. A whole family of ducks, to be precise! It reminds me of that scene in "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy": “So, where do the ducks go when the pond freezes over? Is there some little truck driver who comes by and picks them up?” What explanation do we have for their disappearance? Here, that question doesn’t even rise, the pond doesn’t freeze over, but I always ask it anyway. 🦆❄️ »

« New York may appeal to some, and not to others. But it certainly can’t leave anyone indifferent. It’s no wonder this metropolis is unofficially regarded as the capital of the world. »

« You know, for me, New York wasn't a "wow!" experience or something surprising – New York is an endless déjà vu. I felt like I knew this city well through movies and series. In some ways, it resembles other megacities – in Central Park, I felt like I was somewhere in London; the subway reminded me of Paris. But the overall impression was as if I’d returned to a bigger, taller, and brighter version of a familiar place. New York is incredibly diverse, contrasting, multicultural, colorful, noisy, vibrant, tall. And so alive! »

« New York is absolutely amazing!!! The city pulses with a dizzying energy that pulls you in and sweeps you away at a breakneck speed... And those vast spaces are truly impressive: it’s not just about cold, glass skyscrapers, oh no! Each building is a unique architectural masterpiece, both in shape and decor, with its own character. There are homes adorned with intricate plasterwork or columns, real monuments to architecture, magnificent cathedrals and museums, and then there's Broadway - it speaks for itself. But the best part of this city is the people: they're so diverse that it feels like stepping into a museum of humanity, a collection of every kind of individual... A melting pot of languages, cultures, faces...
No matter what, New York is worth visiting at least once in your life... 🌆✨ »

« There are places on this planet that you definitely want to visit again because you fell in love with the country, the city, the vibe... It's been a week since I left New York... and I have this strange feeling, did I really enjoy it on the other side of the planet? Everything felt so fast, the days just flew by. In short, I didn't fully grasp it... And since I didn't savor it, it means I need to do it again! ☝ »

« The first impression is quite strange. New York with its skyscrapers and crowds, a plethora of bright advertisements, the sound of police sirens, and the constant buzz - it’s not really my thing. I’m not a fan of big, noisy cities, but experiencing the power of these towering giants and truly feeling this city is definitely worth it. »
@anaismakarova
« New York is beautiful! I fell in love at first sight! I'm thrilled by everything and ready to photograph every building. Two and a half days is nothing here, and of course, I need to come back this year! 😊📸 »
@inna_kabirova
« My dream is to return to this city—crowded, high-rise, educational, yet so captivating. A city where my friends and I explored countless attractions entirely on foot, as we found the subway system confusing and pricey at the time. The distances are vast, but walking around was incredibly fascinating and enjoyable... I was there a whole 12 years ago, and I truly believe I will return there someday... even if it’s not anytime soon... But it will definitely happen. »

« New York is dirty and has a bad smell, but the architecture is outstanding. »
@elena_glukh
« New York is surprisingly a very green city. Every 100-200 meters there's some square or park, sometimes with some interesting sculptures :) »
@volwebnic
« I took a ride to the Statue of Liberty. Beautiful views of the impressive New York City. I really love the combination of water and those huge, diverse skyscrapers; it reminds me of Hong Kong. Overall, the city is stunning, wealthy, and powerful – I could definitely see myself living here, somewhere close to the park or by the waterfront. »

« A big city is like a small one, just bigger. Some might think that’s a silly thought, but it’s not. New York is huge, and there are lots of people, but I’ve never felt the intense crowding like in some tourist spots during peak seasons; sure, there are many tourists, but mostly in the center. You don’t get the feeling of being plankton, lost in an unknown sea. »
