5 Days in NY (low budget ver.)

🗽 NYC Trip Recap

I stayed near Empire state, it was very comfy and comfortable to travel anywhere

Day 1 🏙️
• Started the trip with Times Square at night — so bright and a bit chaotic.
• Ended the night at the Empire State Building

Day 2 🏛️
• Morning at MoMA — loved seeing so many famous pieces like Monet’s series, Starry night, etc.
• Grabbed Halal Guys for lunch (so good and very cheap).
• Walked through Central Park, watching sunset and stopped by Grand Central before heading back.

Day 3 🌁
• Early morning walk across Brooklyn Bridge — totally worth waking up early for.
• Explored DUMBO and grabbed Matcha with a view.
• Grab some brunch at Joe’s Pizza
• Shopped and wandered around SoHo in the afternoon.

Day 4 🗽
• Breakfast in Koreatown — felt like a mini Seoul in the middle of NYC ans ofc don’t forget to drink some boba tea.
• Took the ferry to the Statue of Liberty, then visited the 9/11 Memorial — emotional but beautiful.
📌If you have limited budget, I recommend taking free ferry. You can still see the Statue of Liberty and the view of the island.
• Quick stop at the Charging Bull before heading back.

Day 5
• Packed up and headed to JFK. Can’t believe how fast it went by — NYC really doesn’t sleep. ❤️
