Two well-known cities

Hello everyone! Today I’m going to tell you a little about the two cities I’m in, New York and Washington D.C. I’m going to talk about location, population, what they are known for, tourist attractions and so on. Hope you enjoy J

When we (the American history group) prepared us for the big trip to New York and Washington D.C., we read every fact that is to hear about it. First out is New Yorks location.

NEW YORK

LOCATION

New Yorks location is northern-east in the USA. It is a big city in a small state also called New York. The city is to be found by the coast, but it isn’t a fishing village. Well, maybe it was before but I couldn’t find information on that…

This picture actually shows the state New York, but the city is south-east in the state :) 

CLIMATE

Here is all about what you need to know of the climate, from the average temperature, to the highest, to the lowest. It shows us that the average temperature is around 22c and the lowest is around -2c. Average wind speed is around 4 beaufort all times a year

POPULATION

 - The areal of the whole city is 1 214, 4 km²

 - The population is 8 244 910(2011) 

 - The density is 27, 778.7/sq. mi. 

That is a bucket full of people New York has got there. It’s a LOT of immigrant there, and alone, it’s over 2.5 million Jews. It’s also a lot of Italians, Germans, Russians there, of course others to.

FUN FACTS

Nicknames

I have always thought that nicknames are a lot of fun, especially when you share them whit your best friend, this are New Yorks Nicknames: The Big Apple, The Melting Pot, The Capital of the World, NY and NYC

What is it known for? Why do tourists come here?

New York is known for a lot of stuff, the shopping markets, the skyscrapers and the history. And I think the tourists are coming there to shop in the big beautiful shops, like Victoria’s secret and NewYorker. Learn some fact and visit some interesting buildings, because that’s New York have.

Tourists can visit the empire state, time square, statue of liberty, Metropolitan museum of art, Central Park, Bergdorf Goodman, Grand Central Terminal and lots of other J

Washington D.C

Well, Washington is in fact, not a just city, it’s a city AND a state, it’s like Oslo in Norway, but it’s still the capital J

LOCATION AND CLIMATE

Washington D.C’s location is just under New York, so this is also by the coast and has Atlantic Ocean view  

The climate in Washington is very similar to New Yorks. As you can see…

POPULATION

• -          The areal of Washington is 177,0 km²
• -          the population is 646,449
• -          Density 4,066/km2

Washington D.C. is the 23th largest city, based on population. Well that is something I find weird, because the president lives there, halo! Who don’t want to meet Barack Obama downtown shopping some food? Then you can inform him that you think chocolate is too expensive and save him from kidnappers and get a hero medal and stuff.  Yes, I said it. Move to Washington D.C. everybody.

FUN FACTS (NOOOOT)

Ok, I couldn’t find nicknames for Washington D.C., but I guess I could find some up?

Ok her it goes: W.D.C, D.C, Wash D.C, Presidents place, 23th state, and so on J

 I think that was pretty cool.
