A neighbourhood with soul: Harlem is a must for anyone who loves music, soul food and black culture vibes
If you are looking for a cosy and urban atmosphere, Harlem is the place to be. What was once a farming village, named after the Dutch Haarlem, has become the African-American hub of New York. With a mix of cultures, influences and styles, Harlem is one of the hippest and most affordable neighbourhoods of the moment. Not only because of the jazz sounds that are everywhere or the beautiful murals, but also because of the unusual figures that colour the streets. In addition, the many new restaurants and original coffee shops are a real draw for the adventurous tourist. Harlem is versatile and good for your wallet.
