After arriving in New York, I learned some things

🌃 New York is not just Manhattan New York has 5 boroughs, and Manhattan is just one of them. In Flushing, Queens, you don't need to speak English, Chinese is more prevalent; Brooklyn is the birthplace of hip-hop; and once you leave Manhattan, it feels like you're in another world. Try to avoid the Bronx if you can 🛫️ New York has 3 airports, don't get them mixed up Flights to and from New York domestically mostly use John F. Kennedy Airport (JFK); United Airlines' domestic flights to New York mainly land at Newark Airport (EWR); and LaGuardia Airport (LGA) is primarily for domestic flights within the US and is closer to Manhattan 🚗 In the US, it's tough to get around without a car, except in New York New York has a 24-hour subway system and extensive bus routes, and taxis and Uber are also very convenient, unlike other American cities where driving is a must. However, New York's subway is indeed synonymous with being dirty and disorganized 🚽 In New York, restrooms are not readily available everywhere If you come across a restroom in a mall or museum, don't miss it, go right away, otherwise, it's hard to find one. There are very few restrooms in subway stations 🎭 Watching a Broadway show doesn't have to be expensive Buying tickets online in advance isn't always cheaper, and it might be more cost-effective to buy same-day tickets at the door, especially if you have a student ID 👟 In New York, please wear comfortable shoes citywalk is the best way to discover New York, the distance between famous landmarks on Manhattan Island is neither too close nor too far, you really need a pair of comfortable shoes for the tens of thousands of steps you'll take in a day 🌃 The view of the Empire State Building is better from Rockefeller Center, but you should still visit the Empire State Building Being in it may not give you the full view of the Empire State Building, but going to the top is more about sentiment and desire. Many believe that at the Empire State Building, you can encounter love, or reunite! ☕️ The kind of coffee shop in 'Friends' really exists An unfamiliar environment can make one feel lonely, but at certain moments, it can remind you of scenes from American TV shows, which feels warm even though you've never met. But in New York, it's more about feeling lonely, getting used to loneliness, and enjoying loneliness 🏛️ Please reserve at least one day for museums The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Natural History Museum, MoMA, and other museums are worth spending more time to experience art 🤹‍♂️ The NPCs on the streets of New York all cost money 'Movie characters' and 'cartoon figures' coming over to take photos with you will charge you, don't be deceived by the false 'enthusiasm'. The CDs and lucky strings that street guys hand you are not free either
