One day in Upper Manhattan


[scroll down to see English, bottom to see photos]


Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir at Central Park


一天步行遊走曼哈頓 (上至中城).
約 6里 (10公里), 消耗約 550大卡, 用了共 40美元。



在上城吃的並不多, 卻是質優, 選了喜歡的意大利麵 。

當天也穿了透氣短筒登山鞋,棉襪, 短 tee, 卡其褲。

經再三考慮, 選了在 125th 下車,  由於我想看看 上城 Riverside 附近的環境 , 據聞 已經改變 加上有不少食肆, 早上去逛應該還可以的 , 就遊歷一下吧  

原因 其實 那裡 已經是屬 Harlem 了,  很多旅客都會在 116th 車站,   以往 10-20 年前我是不敢單獨到的 

出發時間約在中午 
1pm 抵 125th 車站, (1:30pm 抵 Pisticci 進午餐)
2:30pm 抵 Columbia University, 
3:30pm 抵 Central Park, 
5pm  5th Avenue,

Walk about 6.0 miles (10km) in 5 hours.
Burn about 550 calories.
Spend about USD 40 on one meal.

Had one Shrimp Scampi spaghetti and one house white, and love the atmosphere of the restaurant Pisticci.

I wear breathable upper low-cut hiking shoes, cotton socks, and dress light with short sleeve tee, khaki pants,

After reconsideration, I take off from 125th station, because I want to take a look of Riverside in Upper West side. Heard it is revolved, and there are some good restaurants. A day time visit should be okay.

The reason is 125th street is part of Harlem area, most tourist try to avoid this and get off from 116th station, which is more close to the Columbia University. Frankly speaking, I would not visit this area if it was 10-20 years ago.


Departure:
1pm arrive 125th 車站, (1:30pm arrive Pisticci for lunch)
2:30pm arrive Columbia University, 
3:30pm arrive Central Park, 
5pm arrive 5th Avenue,
