We all know those gorgeous black & white pictures you can buy of the sight of Manhattan from Brooklyn Heights, and this was exactly the reason we needed to visit Brooklyn Heights and see this absolutely stunning view. 

Vi kender alle til de der smukke sort/hvid billeder som man kan købe med billedet af Manhatten fra Brooklyn Heights, og det var lige nøjagtigt grunden til at vi var nødt til at besøge Brooklyn Heights og se dette smukke syn.

Just like Top of the Rocks, we visited Brooklyn Heights while it was day, and then later on we visited just as the sun was setting and we were watching the gorgeous view until it got dark and all the lights were turned on.

Ligesom ved Top of the Rock, besøgte vi Brooklyn Heights imens det var dag, og senere besøgte vi lige som solen begyndte at gå ned og vi kiggede på det smukke syn indtil det blev mørkt og lysene i bygningerne blev tændt.

Central Park is a must to visit when in New York. We entered the park by the American Museum of Natural History and ended up on 5th Avenue by the apple store, when we walked out of it again. As we were in the park, just enjoying it, we found this little tivoli, with the sight of the big city in the background. Such a beautiful sight! Actually, the entrie park is so beautiful. As you can see, we also enjoyed an icecream in the park + we also saw cute squarrels! Besides that, they also have these benches in the park which you can buy and put a note on – My favorite one we saw, is the one you can see on the picture. So adorable. 

Central Park er endnu et “must” at besøge når man er i New York. Vi gik ind i parken ved American Museum of Natural History og endte med at komme ud ved 5th Avenue ved Apple butikken. Da vi var inde i parken og nød det, fandt vi ved tilfælde det her lille tivoli, som har udsigten til storbyen i baggrunden. Fantastisk smukt! Faktisk, så er hele parken rigtig smuk. Som I kan se på billedet, så nød vi også en is inde i parken og udover det så fik vi også set nogle søde egern derinde! Udover det, så har de også en masse bænke i parken som man kan købe og få skrevet en besked på – Min yndlings som vi så derinde, er det som I kan se på billedet ovenover. Så fint. 

Back when we were home, Mia Malene and I had decided that we had to go to at least Rockefeller or Empire State Building to watch the sunset, so we were able to take pictures both in day, sunset and night. We ended up doing just that at Top of the Rock (Rockefeller). 

Da vi stadig var hjemme, havde Mia Malene og jeg bestemte os for at vi skulle i hvert fald op i Rockefeller eller Empire State Building for at se solnedgangen, og også kunne tage både billeder i dagslys, solnedgang og nattelys. Vi endte med at gøre det på Top of the Rock (Rockefeller). 
We stood up there for a few hours to secure a good spot to take photos, but we didn’t really mind. It was beautiful up there. Just seeing how the city changed from daylight into night was amazing. 

Vi stod deroppe i et par timer for at sikre os et godt sted hvor vi kunne tage billeder, men egentlig så havde vi ikke så meget imod det. Det var fantastisk at stå og kigge på hvordan byen skiftede fra dag til nat.
 

If I had to choose between Empire State Building and Top of the Rock, I would definitely say to go for Top of the Rock. There are better picture options (at least when you can’t bring a tripod) and I love the view towards Empire State Building. Rockefeller Center can be found at W 49th Street & 5th Avenue. 

Hvis jeg skulle vælge imellem Empire State Building og Top of The Rock, så ville jeg helt klart sige til jer at I skulle tage op i Top of the Rock. Der er bedre muligheder for at tage billeder (i det mindste når man ikke må tage et kamerastativ med derop) og jeg elsker udsigten imod Empire State Building. Rockefeller Center kan findes på W 49th Street & 5th Avenue.

American Museum of Natural History is of course a place we wanted and needed to visit, and first thing we visited in there was the Hayden Planetarium. I really am fascinated with galaxies and stars, so this was much fun and very fascinating. We also went to watch a space show called “journey to the stars”, which I can most definitely recommend. I’m not sure how much it cost to get in, as we had city pass which included ticket to both the museum and the space show! 

American Museum of Natural History var selvfølgelig et sted vi gerne ville besøge og var nødt til at besøge, og den første ting vi besøgte derinde var Hayden Planetarium. Jeg er virkelig fascineret af galaxer og stjerner, så det var rigtig sjovt og fascinerede derinde. Vi så også et space show som hedder “Journey to the stars”, hvilket jeg helt klart kan anbefale. Jeg er ikke sikker på hvor meget det koster for at komme ind, fordi vi havde city pass som indeholdte både billetten til museet men også til space showet!
