The Big Apple - Glen Rong


Sometime during the end of the year of 2010 I went on a trip around the USA with my Brother, and by far the best place I went to during the trip was Manhattan.

Manhattan is the city that never sleeps, it is always lively no matter what time of day. As a tourist there was so much to do, go to the many tourist attractions such as Time Square, Top of the Rock and Central park to name a few.

Traveling to Manhattan near Christmas time made it all the better, I got to see the big Christmas tree come up at Rockefeller plaza and see it as an ice skating rink.  In Manhattan there is everything in walking distance whether it be restaurants, sights or department stores.

Manhattan also supports many different cultures, if you want to eat Asian cuisine, a steak, Italian cuisine or Mexican, there is a restaurant just for you. There is also the street food, there is almost a hot dog or giant pretzel vendor on each corner.



Manhattan is a city in the state of New York. It is located at the upper east side of the United States. Manhattan is located between the Bronx, Long Island and New Jersey. Manhattan also has two rivers running alongside it, the Hudson River and the east river. Manhattan is only 87.46 square kilometres or 33.8 square miles and has a population of 1.619 million people as of 2012.
Manhattan is one of the most memorable places I've ever visited to and if you are ever going on a trip to the United States of America I would highly recommend you to go to Manhattan.
