Write a descriptive essay based on New York.

Explanation:

I would like to present this city as best as it is considered to be the influential cultural center of the world. New York is the only city in the world so well known to people who have never been there. I think that the city plays an important role, among others in the American film industry. It was films and TV series that created New York in my head, although I’ve never been there. Now I would like to introduce this wonderful city. New York is located in the northeastern part of the United States off the coast of the Atlantic. The city is one of the largest in the USA, and also the most populated city because it has more than 8.6 million inhabitants. New York has enormous global importance in cultural, financial, and technological issues. What were the beginnings of today’s metropolis? The city was founded in 1614 in Manhattan by the Dutch. They bought a piece of land from the Indians and founded a city called New Amsterdam. In 1664, the area was conquered by Englishmen who changed their name to New York. An interesting fact is that the panorama of New York has as many as 5818 skyscrapers, of which over 90 of them rise to a height of at least 183 meters. Everything is the biggest, the best, and the most modern in this city. The city is an important center of banking and finance, global trade, tourism, new and traditional media as well as art in the United States. New York is considered an influential cultural center of the world. In this unusual city live representatives of all nations, continents, and cultures. It is a real epic center of culture and art, thanks to which travelers have endless possibilities of spending time. In my opinion, New York belongs to everyone. The wonderful city is divided into five districts: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, and Staten Island, referred to as boroughs. Each of them coincides with a specific county in the state of New York.

The most famous borough is Manhattan. It is the heart of New York and is also considered the whole of New York. The history of Manhattan begins on September 4, 1609, when sailor Henry Hudson sailed to its shores. The Englishman was employed by the Dutch East India Company. The fact that interested me was that among the goods that were paid to the Indians for the island were also glass beads. In 1877 Martha J. Lamb in her ‘History of the City of New York, described the moment of purchase of the island of Manhattan. The woman made the glass beads become part of the history of the island of Manhattan. Today, the district is divided into three parts: Downtown, Midtown, and Upper. The area of the smallest district is only 59.1 km². By contrast, the population is 1.665 million. During the settlement of the island, a natural selection was made into smaller districts whose names were associated with the settling population. Little Italy is occupied by emigrants from Italy, slowly displaced by the growing Chinatown with the Chinese population. The Lower East Side, on the other hand, was inhabited mainly by people of Jewish origin. Each district is special. Each of them has a different national climate. It is here that the largest number of the most iconic monuments and attractions are located. The city’s elite lives here as well. It was here that one of the best films in the world was played.
