New York City August 2021 - Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens

I just spent a week in New York City with my family, for a family vacation. I’ve spent a lot of time in NYC because my grandmother lives nearby in New Jersey, but this is the first time my family has experienced the city as tourists. We stayed in a pretty nice hotel in Chinatown, and honestly it was a really nice vacation.
I took a lot of photos, and I wanted to share some of them here.

Monday - Day 1 - Manhattan

Wow, you really got all over town. Nice shots.

I especially like the rooftop views from the hotel. Pretty spectacular.

Nice depiction of NYC through a tourist’s eyes. That Chinatown rooftop bar offers great views!
