New York City’s iconic landmarks serve as perfect subjects for your next Instagram post. Don’t leave the city without a few pictures of these places.
Brooklyn Bridge
Connecting Brooklyn and Manhattan, the suspension bridge is a great spot for a snapshot of either borough or a selfie if that’s your thing.
Escape the hustle and bustle of the busy streets in Central Park. The park in the center of Manhattan is home to many photo-worthy spots including Strawberry Fields, the mall, Bethesda Fountain, the pond and Sheep Meadow.
Dining
Whether you visit an upscale restaurant like Gramercy Tavern or prefer a classic slice of pizza, there are plenty of Instagram-worthy dining experiences in the city.
Iconic Buildings
New York City has no shortage of famous buildings. Check out some (or all) of these during your trip: Flatiron Building, Empire State Building, Chrysler Building and brownstones in Brooklyn.
The Oculus
The World Trade Center Transportation Hub opened in 2016 at the site of the former World Trade Center towers. The structure is stunning from the inside and outside. For design fans, it’s a must-see in Lower Manhattan.
Honorable mentions: For a first-time visitor, wanting to experience the most popular (and often touristy) spots, check out these locations: Times Square, Grand Central Terminal, Top of the Rock and The Plaza Hotel.
