Brooklyn, NY county of Kings and home to over 2.5 million people offers many interesting places to see during a visit. So grab your $27 unlimited metro card and get ready to explore some of the best that Brooklyn has to offer.
Coney Island is a great way to spend a day in Brooklyn, NY. On one of Brooklyn's extra hot days you may want to start off at the beach. Enjoy miles of sand, the cool ocean water and array of people and sounds from all over the world. If sand is not your thing, then hit the boardwalk. As you stroll across the Coney Island boardwalk be sure to indulge in the many delicious food and drink options, including the World Famous Nathan Hot Dog Stand.
Also on the board walk is access to the NY Aquarium; which houses over 350 marine species and many exhibits and shows through out the day.
It does not end there, why not take in a baseball game at the MCU Stadium and watch Brooklyn's very own minor league team the Cyclones play. Individual game tickets range in price from $8-$16. Check out the team website at www.brooklyncyclones.com for schedule and listing of other events.
Sandwiched in the middle of all this greatness is the the biggest attraction of them all...the Coney Island amusement park. This amusement park features over 65 rides, including the historic Cyclone roller-coaster, the enormous Wonder Wheel, and the Greatest Show on Earth, The Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Big Tent Circus.
Can you believe this is just a taste of Brooklyn. Come try for yourself, although I warn you , you may not want to go home!
