Why New York is especially beautiful in the fall

New York is fascinating all year round. However, autumn brings a special atmosphere to the city. The temperatures are often more pleasant for long walks through Manhattan, while parks and green spaces slowly turn into autumnal colors. Autumn is excellent for:

• Walks through Central Park
• Sightseeing in Manhattan
• Shopping on Fifth Avenue
• Museum visits
• Broadway shows
• Restaurant visits
• Rooftop bars
• Excursions to Brooklyn
• Walks along the Hudson River
• Day trips outside of Manhattan

Discovering Manhattan – from Downtown to Uptown

Manhattan is huge and at the same time surprisingly easy to explore. The various neighborhoods each have their own character. Therefore, it is worth not just checking off the most famous sights, but discovering the city on foot and by subway. A mobile internet connection is particularly practical for this. You can change your route at any time, search for sights, or check the next subway connection.

Central Park in the fall

A visit to Central Park is part of every New York trip. In the fall, the park transforms into a colorful oasis in the middle of Manhattan. You can walk through the park, go cycling, visit Bethesda Terrace, or simply take a break from the hectic city life. It is especially nice to explore Central Park without a fixed schedule. With mobile data, you can search for interesting places along the way, check your location, or find a café or restaurant nearby afterwards.

Empire State Building and the New York skyline

Seeing New York from a bird's-eye view is one of the great experiences of a trip. The Empire State Building offers an impressive view over Manhattan and beyond. Alternatively, you can also visit other viewpoints such as Top of the Rock or SUMMIT One Vanderbilt. Especially when visiting several sights in one day, your smartphone is an important travel companion. You can call up tickets and reservations, check opening hours, and find the fastest way to your next destination with Maps.

Times Square – New York by day and night

Times Square is arguably one of the most famous places in the city. Huge LED screens, people from all over the world, and the famous New York atmosphere make the square an experience, especially in the evening. From here, you can easily reach many theaters on Broadway on foot. If you are looking for a restaurant spontaneously while on the move or want to check the way to your next destination, mobile internet helps you find the right information quickly.

Broadway – an evening full of entertainment

For many visitors, a New York trip would not be complete without an evening on Broadway. Whether it's a musical, a play, or a show – the selection is vast. Tickets can be bought online or accessed on your smartphone. Information on show times, venues, and short-notice changes can also be quickly checked while on the go. A mobile internet connection ensures that your travel information is always at hand.

Shopping on Fifth Avenue

New York is, of course, a paradise for shopping. Fifth Avenue offers numerous famous shops and brands. But SoHo, Chelsea, and other city districts also invite you to shop and explore. If you want to visit several shopping areas in one day, you can plan your route directly on your smartphone. And if you get hungry in between:
Search for a restaurant near me and off you go.

Discovering New York through its cuisine

New York is a paradise for food lovers. From classic New York pizza and bagels to international restaurants, you will find practically every cuisine in the world. Especially on a city trip, you might not want to visit the same restaurant every evening. With a mobile internet connection, you can:

• Search for restaurants in your area
• Read reviews
• View menus
• Check opening hours
• Reserve tables
• Find the way to the restaurant

By subway through Manhattan

The New York subway is one of the most important ways to get around the city. And given the size of New York, you will likely use it quite often. With an internet connection, you can check current connections and routes while on the go and find out which line will get you to your next destination the fastest. This is particularly helpful if you want to visit several sights in one day.

Central Park → Museum → Fifth Avenue → Times Square → Broadway

With good route planning, you can get a lot out of a day in Manhattan.

Brooklyn and the Brooklyn Bridge

Even though Manhattan is the center of many New York trips, you shouldn't skip Brooklyn.
A walk across the Brooklyn Bridge offers a great view of the Manhattan skyline.
On the other side, you can, for example, explore DUMBO and enjoy the view back toward Manhattan. Here, too, your smartphone is practical: navigation, restaurant search, public transport, and information on sights are available at any time.

Hudson River and New York at sunset

A walk along the Hudson River can be a pleasant change from the hectic Midtown. A walk is especially worthwhile in the late afternoon, when the city slowly changes and the skyline appears in the evening light. With Maps, you can flexibly extend your route and subsequently search for a restaurant or bar in the vicinity.

New York is big, fast, and sometimes surprisingly confusing. A mobile internet connection makes many situations easier.

• Navigation
• Subway & Traffic
• Restaurants
• Tickets
• Translation
