USA TRAVEL GUIDE, “NORTHEAST” NEW JERSEY

NEW JERSEY: THE GARDEN STATE



BY CLAY LARROY


Traveling is the kind of activity, which almost all the people love. For someone it is an opportunity to relax and abstract from everyday busy life. For others it is interesting to observe the way people of other cultures and mentality live. Some people consider it to be the best way to have fun and always try to visit as many clubs, pubs, restaurants and cafes as possible for their wallets and time limits. When you want to plan a vacation contact me!







Looking to enjoy a night out in the City? Or perhaps you’re more the artistic type. Well, you’re in luck because Jersey City has it all! From shopping malls and open spaces to theatres and museums, the list of things to do here is endless, and visitors and locals alike have been enjoying them for years.


Book a cruise to Ellis Island, or simply stroll our historic neighborhoods for a charming afternoon out. Sit in one of our gorgeous city parks or take the kids rollerblading in Libery State Park.


The history buffs among you can stop by the Harsimus Cemetary or follow in the footsteps of escaped slaves as they traveled the Underground Railroad. Leonard Gordon Park is home to statues of Buffalo and Bears by renowned sculptor Solon Borglum, brother and uncle to the men who carved Mount Rushmore. Jersey City has it all to make your stay wonderful and interesting.


While all this is enough to keep an entire group busy for days, there is a lot more to Jersey City than what is written here. Plan your visit today and see what you’ve been missing!
