Well, I want to say that I read your post the New York city is one of my most favorite city in New York State. Because there are many popular destinations for tourist in this city. Travelers visit these and enjoy her self. By the way, Can you share which is your favorite destination?
Every city in this state has different specialties as if we talk about New York, its vibrant lifestyle, and tasty food always attract me.
Albany is popular due to economic and cultural center of the Capital Region of New York State.
On the other hand, for enjoying Italian American cuisine services should go for Utica. fried meatballs, sausage rolls, tomato pie and a mildly spicy pasta dish called chicken riggies.
We will discuss the remaining 3 next time and still willing to know which other city have you explored.
