Philadelphia
On our way to New York, we decided to stay overnight in Philadelphia. We were told that this is one of the most beautiful cities in Pennsylvania and we had to make sure of it personally.

Capital One Café
Café
Open Details
We went to the nearest coffee shop this morning and got coffee and doughnuts. By the way, besides donuts, you can eat burgers, fried chicken and fries here. The cafe is small and there's not as much space as I'd like, but the doughnuts are very tasty here!

15 min
Chinatown Friendship Arch
Landmark
Open Details
The gate to the Chinese Quarter. If you have time, you can walk around the neighborhood. There are restaurants, bakeries, shops, and a small market. We walked the block fast, ran into a couple of souvenir shops and moved on.

Philadelphia's Magic Gardens
Art Gallery
Open Details
It's an impressive place! A small labyrinth, whose walls are made of a variety of things: glass, bottles, wheels and piles of everything else. Mosaic steps and walls, incomprehensible design of the chandelier. All this, the works of one artist, which are combined in a single exhibition. You can spend hours wandering around and looking for new details and elements.

Philadelphia Museum of Art Steps
Museum
Open Details
At the Art Museum, we went to an exhibition of Impressionism. I liked it very much, and the museum itself is excellent! Here are works by artists from all over the world. Of course, we wanted to stay here longer to pay attention to each exhibit, but we had to move to the Rodin Museum to get to New York today.

Rodin Museum
Landmark
Open Details
This is a unique opportunity to study the biography of the sculptor, to see with their own eyes the originals and copies of the works of the great Rodin. The museum is small and has an atmosphere of calm and contemplation. We've looked at all the works presented and walked around the park a little bit.

Wawa
Convenience Store
Open Details
We didn't spend time for lunch, went to a shop near the park, bought food for the trip and went on a trip. Because New York was waiting for us! I couldn't wait to get there.

Bridge View Lawn
Park
Open Details
We've decided to start with Brooklyn Bridge Park to get to know New York. The promenade offers a breathtaking view of Manhattan! Especially beautiful here in the evening, when the whole city shines in the light of lanterns and neon signs!

Brooklyn Bridge
Landmark
Open Details
Of course, we have to go over the legendary Brooklyn Bridge. Many times we have seen it in photos, films and magazines, and now we have the opportunity to step on it and go through a part of the history of New York!

Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ
Bar
Open Details
Near the central park, we found a Japanese place with a grill bar. We decided to diversify our menu a little bit on the trip. The thing about this place is that you have to cook your own food. There's a little roast on every table. I felt like a real cook. Everything was delicious! Probably because I cooked it myself.

Open Details
First day in New York City! Of course, we could go for a walk through the night city, but we were so tired that we had to deny ourselves this whim. You went to bed with anticipation of tomorrow. I can't wait to see this with my own eyes!
