On multiple visits to NYC, I had never ventured outside of Manhattan. During my trip to Brooklyn I strolled through lush waterfront parks, visited world-class museums and marveled at a 300-year-old bonsai tree.
My fabulous walking tour of Brooklyn started in Manhattan, an easy subway ride away, and included a thrilling walk across the iconic mile-long Brooklyn Bridge, then an exploration of DUMBO and Brooklyn Heights, two of the most vibrant of the over 70 neighborhoods in New York City’s most populous borough.
We stayed in the modern 42 Hotel in trendy Williamsburg, home to both hipsters and Hasidic Jews.
