The Largest Modern City:New York

September 16th, 2009 Hero No comments

I had a trip for New York City with my college last month, now I sum up the experience of my tour and share with you. I hope this passage can help anyone who has some interest for traveling there.

New Your City is the largest city of USA and the capital of modern business. I could just watch it from television before and feel it’s not enough to me. This time, I got the chance to travel there and got the feeling of this attractive city myself. The feeling of being in there is still in my memory until now. If you traveled to New York City, I suggest you travel around the world-famous Statue of Liberty. You can get the feeling of the pursuit of liberty of people in United States when the huge statue just in front of you.

Further more, New York City is so large that there are interest points everywhere, you can stop and enjoy the sight wherever you are. So if you are not traveling with a tourist party, I suggest you can rent a local car. When I went there, we rent a car from a website called New York Bus Charter, the quality, price and service are nice. If you are interesting, please mark down and go throw the website. After all, you can see more view spots when having a car in the city.

Finally, I sincerely hope you can enjoy your trip there and enjoy your holiday.
