Globe Trekker TV Shows: New York

Presenter: Ian Wright

 

Ian Wright explores New York, one of the world's greatest cities, which is situated on the East Coast of the United States. He visits not only the famous landmarks but also lesser known Ian takes a boat trip to the Statue of Libertyattractions which are rarely visited by tourists.

Ian's New York experience begins at the city's most enduring and evocative symbol - The Statue of Liberty. Two million foreign tourists visit New York every summer and no trip would be complete without seeing this sight.

Then after checking into Manhattan's Gershwin Hotel, patronised by models and socialites, Ian takes a taxi to the Lower East Side. The taxi driver gives Ian some lessons in New York Attitude - you are not only welcome to be as obnoxious as you please but it's actually expected of you. Be specific and decisive, but don't forget to tip...

Ian goes shopping for trainers in preparation for a basketball game in Washington Square Park, and image: Ian in the Bronxlater in Central Park he has a go at the ultimate New York exercise - rollerblading. That evening Ian goes out and experiences New York's hectic nightlife.

Ian hangs with the homeboys in Harlem and the Bronx before moving on to Brooklyn where he plays dominoes in a Puerto Rican cassita. Finally he heads to Coney Island beach, best known for its gruesome freak shows and fairground rides, but also an ideal spot to soak away the cares of city life.

Before leaving New York Ian takes a helicopter ride over Manhattan by all accounts the world's most spectacular city skyline and the perfect way to end a hectic week in this incredible city.
