The city that invented itself — neighbourhoods, food and relentless forward motion.
New York is the only city in the world where the mythology matches the reality. The skyline at night is exactly as extraordinary as every photograph. Central Park in October is exactly as beautiful. The bagel from a Lower East Side deli at 8am is exactly as good as claimed.
The New York worth visiting is found in the neighbourhoods: the West Village brownstones, Chelsea Market, the Brooklyn waterfront at DUMBO, the Queens food scene along Roosevelt Avenue. The museums are world-class, the bridges are free and the energy is absolutely real.
