There are many different things to do in New York City, but summer is almost over. You're probably tried of going into the city and doing the same touristy things in the same areas. I mean how many times can you go to Times Square. Here are five interesting unique things to do before the summer is over in New York City. That will take you all over the city.
1. Downtown Food, Desert, and Wine Tour
Enjoy a walk through Soho and into Little Italy while enjoying the best food and wine that NYC has to offer. You'll be lead by a licensed tour guide as you sample artisan chocolate truffles and European cheeses. You'll also get you're choice of a local craft brew or glass of wine. Not only will you get to sample these fine foods, you'll also learn how they are made. This tour is available through City Food Tours, to learn more visit their website!
2. Visit the High Line
Located in the heart of the Meatpacking District, the High Line is a lovely elevated park made out of the no longer used West Side Line train tracks. Enjoy a mile and a half walk of beautiful greenery, almost making it like you're not in the hustle and bustle of NYC.
3. Ninja Restaurant
This fun japanese restaurant is designed to look like a feudal ninja village. The entire restaurant is setup like a maze with individual rooms for each table. Entrees included teriyaki salmon and mango salmon rolls. The restaurant also has a vegetarian menu and many different types of sake.
4. Mmuseumm
The Mmuseumm is probably the most interesting museum in New York, but it is also the smallest. The entire museum is located in a freight elevator in Tribeca, the museum is so small that it only allows three people in at a time. One of the wackiest artifacts at the tiny museum was the shoe that was thrown at President Bush during a press conference.
5.Visit Rough Trade
Sadly most record shops have been closed in NYC, but thankfully one of the originals Rough Trade still remains. Inside Rough Trade there are records, books, and art installations. The store is even capable of being a venue of up to 250 people. So come dig through some records.
