New York: 3 must see attractions

A trip to New York City will certainly be unforgettable in many ways. There is so much to see and do, so many neighborhoods to explore, each time feeling like you’re seeing something new. It’s the city of excess, everything is big, everything is spectacular, and there’s so much information to process. New York City has many famous landmarks that are noteworthy for their history, architecture, and the culture of the city. In addition to museums, neighborhoods, and monuments, there are three attractions that are truly worth seeing. Let’s take a closer look at them.

#1 Musical on BROΑDWAY THEATRE

“A must-see attraction in New York City is the Broadway musical. Watching a musical in a Broadway theater is one of the three main attractions you should definitely see during your trip to New York. The musicals that are performed on Broadway are famous all over the world and constitute one of the most important aspects of the city’s culture. You will be impressed by the amazing scenery and their alternations, the imaginative costume choices, the dancing, the voices, everything! There are many musical options and prices vary, starting from $80-90 per person and reaching unaffordable prices. Of course, you can find last-minute tickets outside the theater, but this involves a degree of risk, as well as the need to have cash with you. We booked to see Moulin Rouge, which was truly a unique experience with everything we described above. Look up the Broadway theater shows and book your tickets on their official website, here.

#2 LIVE JAZZ

Experience an authentic original jazz music experience in one of the most historic speakeasy bars in the Harlem neighborhood. Listening to original jazz music is one of the 3 must see attractions in New York City. In the Harlem area, there were some of the most well-known jazz clubs in New York City. Today, the speakeasy jazz bar “Bill’s place” remains, which is definitely worth visiting for an unforgettable live performance. It’s best to make your reservation a month in advance as the venue is very small and seats sell out quickly. The live performance lasts about 2 hours and costs $35/person, not including drinks. The good thing is that they allow you to bring your own alcohol bottle. After having the opportunity to listen to Bill and his band, you can even talk to him/take a picture with him after the live performance. He’s a wonderful person with an amazing sense of humor.

#3 Watch NBA game

Watching an NBA game will be one of the best experiences of your life. Their arenas are as big as airports, and the game feels like watching a theatrical performance! During the breaks, there are dance routines, competitions involving the crowd, giveaways of team merchandise, great music, and overall immersion into the game. Watching an NBA game is an attraction that you must see during your trip to New York. To buy tickets, you need to be very careful. We struggled with this, as we booked through an app among the many available, and never received our tickets. Luckily, we got our money back and found cheaper tickets for $55/person. Look up NBA games and book your tickets here.

You can also find last minute tickets outside the stadium, in a good location and at a good price, as long as you have cash with you.

For your purchases, use the Revolut card to which you will have transferred a certain amount for this purpose. This way, you will save a significant amount of money from currency exchange fees.

Actually, choose to leave out a museum or landmark rather than miss out on this unique opportunity to enjoy the 3 attractions that you won’t have the chance to see elsewhere. It will be 3 attractions that you will remember forever.
