A quick rundown of the must-see neighborhoods in NYC, what to expect (and the best souvenirs to take home with you)
New York City is a city with an ever changing landscape. There are so many neighborhoods within New York City to explore that you will often need to make multiple trips in order to see everything. Even when you think you’ve seen it all, something new appears or you may notice something you have never seen before. A great way to capture a memory is to take a photo, but even better would be to buy a souvenir framed photo of the iconic New York City landmarks and sceneries.
Some of the neighborhoods that we recommend checking out on your next trip to New York City are the Lower East Side, Little Italy, Midtown, and Times Square.
The Lower East Side, which is sometimes referred to as the “LES,” is a neighborhood in the southeastern part of New York City between Bowery and the East River. The Lower East side is a working-class neighborhood with lots of art and small restaurants.
