Had a great 5-day trip in New York. I myself stayed in Manhattan, close to Times Square. What a mighty beautiful city! Unbelievable. You must have experienced it yourself once, only then will you know how it feels to stand among the giant buildings. Awesome. Definitely worth repeating!— This text has been automatically translated into English
