New York City Subway Adventure
๐Navigating the train/subway stations in New York! (๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐ค๐ง ๐๐ช๐ฉ๐ช๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ง๐๐ซ๐๐ก๐จ) - - The train and subway systems are an adventure in and of themselves! It was our kidsโ first time in an underground station and they were so excited (swipe to see my sonโs reaction๐) The kids looked forward to this ride every morning as we traveled from our @airbnb in Jersey City to NYC ~ we felt like true New Yorkers!๐
๐Train/subway tipsโฆ
โจIf you are staying outside of Manhattan, check to see if they offer train passes. Some vacation rentals do!
โจThe subway passes only allow 4 swipes per trip so you need another card if you are traveling with more than 4 people. We found this out the hard way!๐
โจCheck your route ahead of time! It can really complicate things if you hop on the wrong train/subway. We found this out the hard way too!๐
โจRather than saying north or south, in Manhattan they say โuptownโ or โdowntownโ. It can describe the direction youโre traveling or specific coordinatesโฆ
๐Uptown- north of 59th St
๐Midtown- between 59th and 14th St
๐Downtown- South of 14th
Traveling east and west is considered โcrosstownโ
โจHope this is helpful! Have you ever accidentally taken the wrong subway/train?๐
