Jersey City

“The Long Exposure Selfie” This is the view of New York City’s downtown financial district as seen from Jersey City, New Jersey. The Freedom Tower stands mightily over the Hudson River where US Airways Flight 1549 had to make an emergency landing after losing both engines to bird strikes. It has popularly come to be known as “The Miracle On The Hudson”. This sight is less than half a mile from the Exchange Place Path train station. One can also reach this place via the New York Water Taxi Service. This place is truly a sight to behold and should be on everyone’s itinerary when visiting The Big Apple!

One of the biggest Hindu festival Navratari is starting tomorrow. It is marked by 10 days of celebration. For first 9 days people worship Goddess Durga and dance in colorful attires in huge groups in the evening. It is an amazing experience for anyone. Check out for flyers regarding Garba or Dandiya dance in your neighborhood or just ask your Indian friends 🤓 #festival #festivals #indianFestival #indianDanceFestival
Fall had ended and the sun was setting early that day! The view of the freedom tower from the exchange place boardwalk was astounding!
Jersey City. Though not New York, Jersey City is as close as it gets. The two cities have shared significant and historical events together. Whether it was rescuing the passengers on US Airways flight of the “Miracle on the Hudson” or celebrating every 4th of July by a show of fireworks over the river, these two metropolises will forever be intertwined.
