When someone says she\u2019s going on a New York vacation, what she probably means is a trip to Manhattan.\u00a0 So much of what we associate with New York rests in Manhattan that planning a day trip to Brooklyn or Queens becomes something of an afterthought.\u00a0 But, why?\u00a0 Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island all offer fun and exciting experiences for those willing to branch out.\u00a0 So, take a look at some of our favorite New York attractions that can only be seen when you go beyond Manhattan and explore the city\u2019s other 4 boroughs:<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Brooklyn<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Outside of Manhattan, Brooklyn probably represents the most well-known borough.\u00a0 As a result, it sometimes features as part of a New York vacation.\u00a0 Over the years, Brooklyn has gone from a rough-and-tumble neighborhood to one filled with artists, coffee shops, and swanky boutiques.\u00a0 But, as the battlefield for the American Revolutionary War\u2019s Battle of Brooklyn and the home of the world-famous Brooklyn Bridge, the borough is steeped in history.\u00a0 So, whether you just want to shop and check out the local art scene or get in touch with America\u2019s past, a Brooklyn walking tour<\/a> would serve you well here.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Queens<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

Even though it is often left out, Queens has a lot to offer someone on a New York vacation.\u00a0 You have Rockaway Beach, which was immortalized by a local and legendary punk rock band:\u00a0 The Ramones!\u00a0 Then, there\u2019s Queens Museum with its \u201cPanorama\u201d exhibit displaying a scaled-down replica of New York City.\u00a0 And, of course, Queens represents the home of Flushing Meadows, home of the U.S. Open and the New York Mets.\u00a0 You can visit Flushing Meadows as part of a New York Boroughs Tour<\/a>, which focuses primarily on The Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Bronx<\/h4>\n

\"beyond-manhattan-visiting-other-4-boroughs-new<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For much of its history, The Bronx has suffered a reputation for being a rather feisty borough.\u00a0 But, in recent decades, things have calmed down considerably.\u00a0 It\u2019s a perfectly safe place to visit and you\u2019ll find no shortage of fun things to see and do.\u00a0 Check out the famous Bronx Zoo, a welcome oasis within the urban sprawl.\u00a0 Or, enjoy a tasty meal at Yankee Stadium with a Hard Rock Caf\u00e9 \u2013 Yankee Stadium Meal Voucher<\/a>!\u00a0 There\u2019s also the New York Botanical Garden, which features over one million living plants.\u00a0 It\u2019s one of the more relaxing things to do in New York.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Staten Island<\/h4>\n

\"beyond-manhattan-visiting-other-4-boroughs-new<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Poor Staten Island.\u00a0 The place always gets mentioned last and often serves as the butt of most New York jokes.\u00a0 But, as usual, the label doesn\u2019t accurately represent The Forgotten Borough.\u00a0 Yes, there\u2019s an infamous landfill and some fine, young, fist-pumping gentlemen sporting fake tans.\u00a0 But, there\u2019s also a lot of history and it\u2019s the only borough that feels even remotely suburban.\u00a0 Stop by the Snug Harbor Cultural Center, Historic Richmond Town, and Fort Wadsworth during your New vacation.<\/p>\n
