I was here for the Hispanic Leadership Summit. My biggest issue was lack of food and bathrooms. Because of the security, there isn’t many direct routes so you have to go up and down to get around. It’s a beautiful place, wish I could have taken the tour.
Really impressive building beautiful artwork on the outside on a building adjacent to the UN headquarters. Is really striking to see all the flags of Nations involved all sharing an equal position. There are tours available which I wish I could have done but was not aware of these until it was too late. Definitely worth visiting just to see the size and magnitude of what the UN dealing with and to support the work that goes on here
Must visit if you’re in New York! It’s a beautiful building, very well-designed. Very interesting history and work of diplomacy, international relations and human rights. The human rights are beautifully displayed inside.
We went on a guided tour. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and kind. He was able to answer all our questions and was a very informative. I would definitely recommend it!
You have to book the tour in advance and can buy the tickets online. And remember to bring your passport!
It’s much nicer inside than it would seem. The tour guides are very friendly and interesting. I liked visiting some of the halls while the meetings were taking place.
Beautiful sight of the United Nations headquarters with the flags of all UN countries flying high!
The building itself is pretty as well although didn't go inside. The location is spectacular as its close to the Brooklyn Bridge.
If you're in Manhattan for vacation do visit this iconic place and look out for your flag!
