 Hidden Gems You Can Explore with GuruWalk
1- The Whispering Gallery at Grand Central Terminal
Grand Central Terminal is a marvel, but many visitors miss the Whispering Gallery, a hidden acoustic phenomenon in the lower concourse. Stand at opposite corners of the archway, speak softly, and your voice will carry across the arch as if by magic.
2- The Elevated Acre
An urban oasis nestled amidst the skyscrapers of the Financial District, the Elevated Acre offers stunning views, lush gardens, and a peaceful escape from the city’s hustle and bustle. It’s the perfect spot for a mid-tour break.
3- The Secret Speakeasies
Travel back in time to the Prohibition era by visiting some of NYC’s hidden speakeasies. With entrances disguised as unassuming storefronts or phone booths, these secret bars offer a unique and exciting experience.
4- City Hall Station
Discover the beauty of the abandoned City Hall subway station, an architectural gem with elegant tile work and stunning arches. While it’s closed to the public, GuruWalk guides can share its fascinating history and point out where you can catch a glimpse of it from the passing 6 train.
5- The Little Red Lighthouse
Tucked beneath the George Washington Bridge, the Little Red Lighthouse is a charming reminder of the city’s maritime past. It’s a great spot for photos and offers picturesque views of the Hudson River.
