Where are the best places to take pictures in New York? If you’re planning for your upcoming NYC trip, then look no further. See below for NYC most Instagrammable photo spots with the exact Google Maps pinpoints.

1. DUMBO, Brooklyn (click here for the exact location)

2. Pebble Beach, Brooklyn

This is the spot to get a clear view of Brooklyn Bridge, Jane’s Carousel, and the pretty FiDi skyline.

In just a short walk, you can find TimeOut Market where you can grab your lunch.

3. Brooklyn Bridge (map: here)

Crossing the bridge from the Brooklyn side to Financial District was probably better than the other way around, because you’re going to be facing the beautiful FiDi skyline. I got a liiiittle bit confused to find the way to walk on the bridge. Don’t be like me ๐Ÿ˜†– here’s where the entrance to Brooklyn Bridge promenade is located.

4. Oculus Center, Financial District

You’ve crossed the bridge and reached FiDi. What’s there to see in FiDi? You can go to Oculus Center here and be in awe with the architecture.

5. Battery Park, Financial District

Winter days are short and now the sun is setting. Definitely a good idea to spend an early evening at Battery Park. You can get a skyline view from here.

6. The Edge, New York

I’ve been mentioning the word “skyline” a lot and that’s because NYC skyline is just too pretty. One way to enjoy it is probably by going up to some of the tallest skyscrapers in the city.

You need to buy a ticket to get to the skydeck at The Edge. Click here for more information about my visit there.

7. Summit One Vanderbilt, New York

Both The Edge and Summit One Vanderbilt are amazing. Click here to see my post on Summit One Vanderbilt vs The Edge.

8. Grand Central Station, New York

When in Summit One Vanderbilt, might as well visit the Grand Central Station. The 2 buildings are connected! ๐Ÿ˜Š

9. Times Square

This location is probably the most popular photo spot. What do you think? ๐Ÿ˜‰

10. Marsha P Johnson State Park, Brooklyn

Aaand we’re back in Brooklyn. This time we’re on the hunt for Williamsburg Bridge view. We got a bonus of Manhattan skyline view on our way there.

11. Domino Park, Brooklyn

It’s such a nice park by the river with a view of Williamsburg Bridge and Domino Sugar refinery site.

12. The High Line, New York

I started my walk from The High Line entrance at the Meatpacking district, and continued walking up until I reached Hudson Yards.

Took some good photos near the bubble-shaped-windows apartment here.

13. West Village, New York

If you’re looking for that New Yorkโ€‚classic townhouse vibes just like in the movies, head to West Village. I took this photo below at Perry St.

14. Ralph’s, Upper East Side

Upper East Side was probably my favourite neighbourhood I even wrote a post about it. Click here to see what to do in Upper East Side.

15. The MET, Upper East Side

The MET and Gossip Girl. This is it. This is THE stairs.

16. Central Park

Central Park is huuuge and I spent lots of time looking for this iconic San Remo apartment view. It’s actually located just steps away from the also iconic Bow Bridge at Central Park. Click here for the location.

17. Washington Square Park, New York

A lovely park with a historical arch. It’s a lovely place.

18. Gantry Park, Long Island City

From Long Island City’s Gantry Park, you can see the view of Midtown Manhattan.
