The Empire State Building
The Empire State Building is an iconic building and is one of the most famous and recognizable buildings of the world. Chances are: even if you haven’t been to New York, you still heard of it from movies. It is no brainer that this is a number one destination for tourist. However, we suggest you read our shot guide and prepare yourself.
Firstly, we’d like to mention the very large amount of people coming here daily. Secondly, to tell the truth, the movie star building is amazing to look at, but you can’t do so while you are in it. Given that we have a lot of love for it, it is way nicer to see the views that include the building. Such as Top of the Rock for example.
However, there are still good reasons to visit the legendary building.The Empire State Building is a beautiful piece from the Art Deco era of New York architecture. It not only offers you it’s observation deck, but there is also access to ESB’s exhibits. Here you can learn about its history, the people who built it. Come and experience the “Kong” room, that recreates the 1933 film King Kong. His giant hands coming through the broken windows, reaching into the building, as he climbs to the top of the skyscraper.
