New York Travel

What are the places that should be visited certainly in New York?

After arriving in New York, we must prepare a plan so that we can know where to go and how to go. If we travel with a tour agency, it is ok but if you don’t, this is very important. Certainly,  we could suggest you to  visit Twin Towers before it wasn’t destroyed but now it is gone for ever.

Therefore, one of the most important places that should be seen is the Empire State Building. This is an important building;it is a 442 high, 102-storied building consisting of 1576 stairs. Its construction was finished in 1931, it is one of the places where you can see all New York City and it is one of the most beautiful places… There are some places you should see after all of these ones because there is the Statue of Liberty. This France’s present to America for 100. hundred reminder. After you go to New York, see the Empire State Building, you can arrive The Statue of Liberty by the most beautiful boats and vessels.

The Statue of Liberty is not only New York’s but also The World’s symbol. It is 93- meter high but we give you bad news. Because of terorism events, you cant arrive the stone point up the stairs but you can go up till bedplate. It is not compulsory but I suggest you to go there…

Why don’t we visit museums when we come to New York? We will visit Metropolitan Museum. Although it is stil a borrowing museum from The World History, it is a unique  museum.

Don’t return from New York without passing through the Central Park because only this park can jolly a place up.

When you come here, you should watch a musical. Then you can arrange a New York travel in a short time.

How is the transportation in New York?

One of the capital towns in the World is New York. New York is really a beautiful city despite its blasted towers… Then, what must we do when we want to come here? Directly, you can enjoy arriving in New York in 9-10 hours by buying a ticket from Turkish Airlines. Beside flying directly, there is a visa problem about entry permit. What kind of American visa problem is this? Until the 11 September Twin Towers scandal, Turkish people could get visa easily. Before this situation, America used to give lifelong visa permit. After this terorism events, there happened to be some problems with the frame of the rules. America started to give 10-year visa and it wasn’t easy to take visa because America gives visa if it accepts the person suitable according to the interview where they scan fingerprint and retina.

After getting the visa,there is only thing left to do!! – to go and get around America, New York. When you  go to  New York, it is useless to stay for 3-5 days because New York is a seperate world. 7 or 8 days can be  enough to get around New York.  If you want to be here  and get around more, 15 days can be suitable.

How is the climate in New York?

The world has 4 seasons; Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter but New York has 2 seasons. Whatever happens, never go to New York in Winter. Skyscrapers are seperated as a blok. When you work between two bloks, you can find yourself not to walk as you are frozen. Therefore don’t go to New York in Winter…

In summer, in other words; in early spring you can feel the temperature  after April. In summer, unfortunately you can hardly walk because of the smoke of the cars, skyscrapers, taxis and their exhaust fumes and the high temperature of the air..

September, October and November are the best months to go to New York.

How is the food culture in New York?

The only city where you can eat 4 times big your meals  and there are a lot of different restaurants is New York. It is  impossible to forget the sausage sellers on the streets. Do you know know all these sausage sellers are Arabian Muslums? You can relax because they never use pork. They prepare shish kebabs by using veal, mutton and beef plus they sell chicken shish. You can eat these sausages tastefully. Isn’t it sensible to eat a sandwich for 2 dollars instead of going to restaurats? The biggest feature is that you can find all the world’s food culture in New York. Briefly, Turkish don’t suffer from food.

Do you miss Turkish meals? Dervish Restaurant waits for you on the 45. avenue, 7. street. Including  its delicious stuffed vegetables and borlotti beans in olive oil, wonderful Turkish food waits for you. Of course, you will eat some things in America but there is not a special food of America. The important one is to eat according to your palatal delight. Then you can go to New York to eat the most beautiful food of the World.

Paris Travel

What are the places that should be necessarily visited in Paris?

Since the book “Da Vinci Code” was published, people are more interested in Paris. Some people follow the places that are mentioned in Da Vinci Code and they determine a route according to themselves.

One of the places that should be visited is Shanzelize Avenue. ( Champs-Élysées in French), it is a wonderful avenue. Even if you don’t make shopping, you can stroll and take a look at the shops on Shanzelize avenue. Also, you should go to Eiffel Tower.

You know Eiffel Tower; it is one of the most beautiful constructions and it has an interesting architecture. It has a wonderful Paris view. Also the people who are interested in art can visit Orsay Museum. They can also visit Louvre Museum. In Louvre Museum, you should certainly see Mona Lisa which is Da Vinci’s  the wonderful work of art. Louvre Museum also has  thousands of works of art. Louvre Museum is one of the important museum of the World. The Noterdam Cathedral is very beautiful too. You can also visit Noterdam Cathedral.

Pompediu Cultural Center is a place where different cultural activities have been arranged. You can have a good time there. You can go to Monmart; it is bohemian part of the city and also Sacred Heart Churc called Sakrekör is one of the most beautiful places of the city. It has a wonderful scene. It is one of the places that should be visited too.

Where can we make shopping in Paris?

It is possible to make shopping in Paris in a cheap way. Especially, you can find cheap and sutiable things from the tallymen. For example;if you are interested in art, there are a lot of peddlers who sell paintings, pictures or small works of art for a cheap price. Also when you go to Monmart, you can see the peddlers sell their paintings for a cheap price.

As you become distant from the city, it is possible to find shops selling cheap things. The prices in the suburbs are cheaper than urban shops and there junk markets that are arranged in stated days.

When you go to junk markets, you can make shopping in a cheaper way.

Is Paris an expensive city ?

Paris is an expensive city because it is one of the cities whic tourists visit. About 25 millions of tourists visit the city. Therefore, Paris people called parisians are glitzy. You should have a good budget. You should have at least 1000 euro.

If you want to eat in very beautiful restaurants, do shopping, you should have a big budget. There are not big differences between summer and winter because tourists visit here in every season of the year. When you go to Paris, you should prefer a travel agency.

The prices can be suitable or you can get ticket on the net. Hotel prices are generally high but they are lower in distant from city center.

You should have money for extra tour in Paris. There are a lot of beautiful museums. One of them is Orsay Museum. Also there is RU museum. Also you can have canal tour on Sen river. Also they can be night tours with dinner. It is 95 euro if you prefer diner and tour. There is Disneyland. It is one of the places you can go with your children. This needs some Money too. If you like night life, there are places where shows are organized in Paris.

What kind of problems can we face in Paris ?

French people are arrogant people, they think that they  are the ones who have the biggest country in the world. Therefore, they only speak their language. You know French language was the dominant language in the world  19th and early 20th centuries but English language got its dominance later. I had an experience about languages.

Because I can not speak French, a man answered my question in French language however he knew English, I missed London train. I had to wait anothet train. This generalization is not valid for everybody but unfortunately when we do not know French, we can have language probleme even if 25 millions of tourists come here. Apart from this, pickpoketing is common. You have to be careful in crowded places.

How can we go to Paris from Turkey ?

It is possible to arrive Paris in approximately 3 – 3.5 hours. There are a lot of connected transportation possibilities. You can travel by Turkish Airlines, Air France. In summer there are flights from different cities of Turkey. You have to have Schengen visa to go Paris or France. If your first entrance place will be Paris, it is possible to get your visa in French embassy or in embassy in Ankara in Turkey.

Where can we stay in Paris ?

If you want to stay in cit center, prices are very very high so you can prefer places that are distant from city center. The ones who have small budget can stay here.

There is big underground net. It is very successful. There are a lot of lines and so if you stay in distant from city center, it is possible to arrive everywhere in short time. Therefore I suggest you underground.

When you stay in distant from city center, you can pay the price %50 as half as the price in city center especially about accomodation services because the prices are very different from each other. The hotels in city centers are more popular and everybody wants to go there.

How is the climate in Paris?

In my opinion,  You should go to Paris in spring. Especially in April and earl May everywhere is green because Paris is a city which has parks and it is very enjoyable to experience these beauties in Paris. If you want to take your darling and select these months, it will have a big benefit for you relationship.

In summer it is very hot and also it can be very crowded because a lot of tourists come here. Therefore I suggest you spring months. If you come here in winter, it is a very cold city so there are a lot of activities in indoors. You can get frozen if you come here in January or February.
