Come along with me to discover a very special neighborhood of NYC, Forest Hills Gardens in Queens. A true hidden gem only 15 minutes ride from Manhattan by Long Island Railroad. Board the train on 34th street Penn Station and get off in a completely different scenario, populated by beautiful tudor homes, treelined streets and picturesque churches that seem to belong in a storybook. We will talk about the history of the neighborhood, about the Forrest Hills Tennis Stadium ( where the US Open was originally set and where even the Beatles performed) stroll along the beautiful winding streets, visit the Church in the Gardens and end the tour by one of the last authentic Soda Shops in NYC. This is a great opportunity to step out from the noisy touristic centre of Manhattan and discover a hidden aspect of New York that will give you also plenty of chances to take incredible photos.
