[미국여행]뉴욕 브루클린 여행 가이드- 익스피디아
맨해튼 바로 남쪽의 롱 아일랜드에 위치한 브루클린은 뉴욕의 다섯 개 자치구 중에서 인구가 가장 많습니다. 유구한 역사를 간직한 브루클린은 현재 뉴욕 주가 형성되는 과정에서 생긴 첫 번째 정착지였습니다.

#브루클린 여행
브루클린 하이츠는 자치구 내에서도 굉장히 부유한 구역 중 하나입니다. 이 지역은 고풍스럽지만 뉴욕 경제에 크게 기여하고 있습니다. 이 대조적인 분위기는 브라운 스톤으로 지은 건물과 쇼핑객으로 항상 북적대는 상점가가 어우러진 덕분입니다.
브루클린 한가운데에는 85에이커 규모의 브루클린 브릿지 공원이 있습니다. 강가를 따라 걷다 보면 뉴욕 시내의 멋진 경관이 눈앞에 펼쳐집니다. 길이가 약 6,000피트에 달하는 브루클린 브릿지는 크게 눈에 띄는 뉴욕의 랜드마크 중 하나입니다. 이스트 강을 사이에 두고 브루클린과 맨해튼을 연결하는 이 다리는 매일 4,000명의 사람들이 오가는 곳입니다.
남쪽으로 더 가면 600에이커 규모의 프로스펙트 파크가 사람들을 기다리고 있습니다. 많은 사람이 롱메도우의 잔디 위에서 휴식을 취하고, 다양하게 마련된 산책로에서 조깅을 하거나 자전거 도로에서 자전거를 타며, 프로스펙트 호수의 자연을 만끽합니다. 대서양과 맞닿아 있는 코니 아일랜드는 한때 미국 최대 규모의 유원지였습니다. 이곳에는 아직도 상징적인 관광명소와 상점이 남아 있는데, 그중에는 네이슨 페이머스(Nathan's Famous) 핫도그 가게와 사이클론(The Cyclone)도 있습니다. 2.5마일에 달하는 코니 아일랜드의 산책로를 따라가면 자연 그대로의 모래 해변으로 이어집니다.
