USA View from Empire State Building, New York City
One of the most amazing views in New York City. You have to buy a ticket, to get up to the platform. A good thing is the New York Pass with Fast Entrance shortens the wait, and you can save money with it. But it has a looooong wait, sometimes about 1.5h or more. But the wait is worth it! You'll get a fantastic feeling. Don't miss it.
Photography Tips
Ultra Wide Angle Lens (Fullframe 14 to 20mm)!! And preferably no tripod, because there are too many people! Try to support yourself on the palings. For night photography you need luck and space to build up your tripod. For a good angle of view, you can try a panoramic shot out of your hand.
