COOL THINGS IN JAPAN YOU MUST SEE

We asked frequent visitors and residents to share their favorite Manhattan neighborhoods and what about them is so special.

We hope that knowing a little more about the features of these coolest neighborhoods in NYC will make it easier for you to choose a destination next time you’re in New York City.

Between 79th and 82nd streets is the fabulous American Museum of Natural History with its collection of dinosaurs, recently refurnished Hall of Gems and the new Gilder Center.

Upper West Side

The area is home to The Cloisters, a medieval structure imported from Europe stone by stone and recreated on Manhattan’s highest point with a view of the Hudson River.

Washington Heights

The best experience you can have in Harlem – besides a Gospel Brunch show, is to attend Amateur Night at the historic Apollo Theater.

Harlem

This area is more a collection of performing art centers than a neighborhood. Still, many New Yorkers refer to Lincoln Center as the Lincoln Square neighborhood.

At such a central location in the middle of the city, Times Square has some of the best restaurants in New York City including one of my favorite Cuban restaurants, Victor’s Cafe.

Times Square

This lively district is bordered by west 41st street to west 54 and from Eighth to Sixth avenue. There are 41 major theaters in this area considered Broadway theaters.
