Brooklyn ...Make it your very own!
The Community - Brooklyn, New York
Brooklyn has a long and storied history. For the folks who never leave Manhattan, the borough may seem like a foreign land (and oh, it is vast). If Brooklyn were its own city like it used to be, it would be the third-most populous one in the country. However, the area is definitely worth discovering, for it is the home of the iconic New York attractions like Coney Island, the Brooklyn Bridge and Prospect Park, plus some of the best New York pizza! While Manhattan draws the most tourists with its all-around incredible slate of restaurants, bars, museums, and bucket-list things to do, Brooklyn isn't far behind. For locals and repeat visitors, the best Brooklyn attractions are well worth a spot alongside NYC's essential destinations. While there, you'll have to check out the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, where those searching for a little peace and quiet would do well to spend a few hours at this verdant oasis. The garden, which abuts two other neighborhood gems - The Brooklyn Museum and Prospect Park - was founded in 1910 and features the types of flora, laid out over 52 acres.

There are entirely too many things to list on what can be done while visiting Brooklyn, so be sure to visit their website that lists more of what needs to be seen located here!
