I took a tour in the Greenwich Village neighborhood in New York, and it was a wonderful experience. Our guide, Steve, who lives in the neighborhood, provided a tour with great passion and enthusiasm. He knows the history and culture of the area well, and it was fascinating to hear his stories about the social and political aspects that have shaped Greenwich Village. Moreover, the neighborhood’s influence on New York City is undeniable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning more about this iconic area of New York. Thank you so much, Steve!!! VIVA MEXICO!🇲🇽
