Since NYC is so well known, no introduction is needed. I’ve been to the Big Apple several times but believe it’s still nice to visit (although I would never want to live here because of the astronomical real estate prices). I was only in town for 24 hours for work, but still managed to snap some quintessential NYC pictures. You can click on the photos for a larger view.
Our aircraft approached Manhattan from the south and we were rewarded with this view.
As we neared LaGuardia, this manhattan skyline pulled into view. I love that you can see the Empire State Building.
On my way to my meeting, we passed by Times Square. Here’s a view from my cab window.
I took a short stroll around midtown before heading to the airport. Here’s Grand Central Terminal.
I did manage to squeeze in some food in Flushing (Taiwan/Koreatown in Queens) before leaving. I sampled Lu’s Seafood House (66) for some Taiwanese fare and Joe’s Shanghai for some Xiaolongbao. Both were delicious! Be aware that NYC’s Chinatowns only accept cash.
On my flight home, I managed to snap this photo of the beautiful shoreline of Chicago. It is a great contrast to NYC.
