    Review of: Brooklyn Botanic Garden
    brooklyn botanical garden
    A beautiful botanical garden to explore - they have a rose garden with many different kinds of roses that was a lot of fun to see, lots of shaded walking paths, and Japanese style pond.

    Review of: Brooklyn Heights Promenade
    Nice walk
    It is a lovely walk and the fact that bicycles are restricted makes it extra nice. On a hot summer day it is a nice green oasis, the neighborhood is beautiful and views are great.

    Review of: Dumbo
    Must see, gorgeous NYC view
    This neighborhood is fun and has so much to enjoy. We had incredible Mexican food, took in the view of the city, and a fun market on Sunday. Dumbo is a must see in NYC!

    Review of: Dyker Heights
    Magical Experience
    It was such an amazing experience to stroll along Dyker Heights during Christmas time. It feels like being in a magical worlds where all the houses are illuminated and decorated with beautiful lights. Many house owners go extra miles to present the best decoration. It's truly beyond expectation. If you have time while visiting NY around Christmas, I would recommend to experience the tour that will take you to a fairy land.

    Review of: Brooklyn Bridge Park
    Best view for Brooklyn bridge
    We had initially visited the Brooklyn bridge but later discovered the best view comes from the Brooklyn bridge park. So visited again. There is also multi-brand restaurants place there which was quite happening.

    Review of: Williamsburg
    Head to the North
    It's a big neighborhood and known for its hipsters and hip establishments. I chose to do my wandering in a decidedly unhip area, the southern edge which is a Hassidic neighborhood, exclusively. Margaret Mead would love to do some anthropological research here, but for the tourist it's drab. Head north for the fun.

    Review of: Brooklyn Museum
    Worth visiting !!
    First time ever visiting this museum and it was so worth it. Really liked the work shown at this museum. Especially the ones on the 5th floor. Nothing like seeing nice Matisse and Monet

    Review of: Brooklyn Brewery
    Very nice experience
    First of all, everyone was very friendly. James explained a lot of interesting things about the Brookling beer and the story (history) behind it. He did it also in a very enjoyable way. The beers we tried were really interesting. We also liked that the kids could join the tour, because otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to join.

    Review of: Brooklyn Tabernacle
    Thank you Jesus.
    It seems almost wrong to 'review' a church. However, this is a place where Jesus is lifted up and the Word of God is faithfully taught. Teaching, fellowship, worship, and prayer. If you're looking for a fantastic church then this is one!

    Review of: Bushwick Collective Street Art
    Unique Art Experience
    I was a little hesitant to travel to Bushwick to view this mural collection that our teen wanted to see after reading about the neighborhood having a history of crime. However, that concern was unfounded. We rode the subway to the Jefferson Street station and felt very comfortable walking through this cool, revitalized neighborhood in the middle of the day. Everyone we encountered in the neighborhood was kind and helpful. The murals were amazing! A very cool experience!

    Review of: New York Transit Museum
    Story of the subway
    I have been wanting to visit this museum for a while and this trip was the ideal opertunity. Not the easiest place to find the GPS goes a bit squiffy with the high rise buildings. The museum is very well laid out in two floor of a closed subway station. It's still connected the the subway network so exhibits can be moved about which is amazing.
    It tell the story of the subway on NYC very well. Even if you are not a rail fan you will get a lot from a visit here.
    At this time masks are still mandatory which become a bit tiresome after a hour or two but no doubt this will change

    No Dogs Allowed 🥺
    No dogs allowed. Had to sneak my pup in and be fast. Kinda annoying. Cash only at some places. Ate a double burger with bacon at Duck Season. 1/2 pound brisket at Barks BBQ.

    Review of: East River Ferry
    Great service and cheap alternative to the subway.
    Fantastic way to get around on that side of the city. Great alternative to the subway if you are visiting Wall Street.
