The view of southern Manhattan was absolutely fantastic. The Empire State Building wasn't viewed very well because of a building in the foreground. The view towards Central Park was magnificent. You can also capture the Statue of Liberty with a telephoto lens. The view from the terrace overlooking the building was wonderful, unlike the view through the glass.

A place very convenient to go, just next by a metro station and next to the edge, it is the vessel. Can take photo together. This price of tickets for the edge us very bargaining. It is worth to go. What's full of fun. The scenery is good. Excellent!

This is a spot that's just as worth visiting as Times Square. While the exterior is free to see, I think it's definitely worth going inside! I went around 5 PM, and you can see Hudson Yards from the top of the Vessel. There weren't many tourists inside, so it was a relaxing experience! I especially recommend this spot to anyone interested in architecture! I was well-rested so it wasn't a problem for me, but getting to the top involves stairs, so it might be a bit of a challenge!

Times Square is a place you absolutely must visit at least once if you go to New York! Honestly, it is not easy to get around because there are *so* many people, but the high-quality billboards that exude the power of capital, and the unique atmosphere of the side streets found in the alleys—different from the main street—make it a tourist attraction definitely worth experiencing at least once.

I was able to see world-famous works by artists like Picasso, Van Gogh, and Monet in person. Seeing works I'd only seen in textbooks or online was even more impressive than I'd imagined. However, the museum is quite large, and there are a huge number of exhibits. It takes a considerable amount of time to see everything thoroughly, so I recommend deciding on a few "must-see" pieces before you go. I had so much to see that I ran out of time halfway through! 😂 Also, the floors are so big that I got lost! 😓 For those planning to go, I think you'll enjoy it more if you check which works and floors you want to see beforehand! There's also a map inside the museum, so I recommend picking one up and using it to navigate!
