This is part two of my Bronx guide and if you enjoy it please give this video a “like” and subscribe so I know to make more videos about New York’s most underestimated borough.
Most people will never make it to the Bronx (except, perhaps, to attend a baseball game at Yankee Stadium). That’s a shame because this overlooked borough has serious cultural clout and a strong sense of community. Adventure awaits you here from rivers to mansions to the homes of infamous godfathers and to where rap music was born. Its role in the American Revolution has paved the way for the thought makers of today in street art, music, and fashion. The Bronx is special and that’s why I’m happy to share 8 more places you cannot miss in the Bronx.

As a Bronx resident I appreciate you shining a light on the beauty of my boro.
Yesssss Jackie Perez. I totally agree with you. We need some love and light.
me too. The bronx gets a bad rap from hollywood and the media
The Bronx is fine. I enjoy it
Sarah gets big props for even knowing much about Big Pun lol
I have LIVED in the BRONX, ALL of my LIFE!
The BRONX has gotten a LOT BETTER since the BAD old days
in the 70, 80 and 90 !
I think the BRONX, is GREAT!!!
Nice. Real new Yorkers know it's not called Bronx, it is indeed called THE Bronx. 👍
She said the Bronx.
@@AntiMasonic93 I know. That's why I gave her a thumbs up.
Exactly...The Bronx! Man, for the most part the Bronx is dirty. The roads are bumpby with potholes, orange barrels line the streets and have been lining the streets and the freeway under passes for 40, yes 40 or more years. No place to park, residents in my opinion get the short end if the stick, yet they are loyal to the Bronx and deserve better. No wonder you're spotlighting art work and bodegas cus you know you bet not walk the streets under where the homeless people take cover by the GWB and by Tremont, Webster and all up in there where residents deserve cleanliness. Not to mention the South Bronx and how dirty and drab Orchard Beach looks. Omg, gurl Bye!
@@beverlybmwwilkerson5923 I’ve lived in The Bronx my entire life as well as been to almost every neighborhood in NYC at least twice. Every borough has their good and bad areas. What you speak of, unfortunately, represents only a portion of what The Bronx is like. Videos like this are necessary because of the narrow and negative narrative people like you constantly share about what the entire borough is like. There is a lot of beauty here and it’s nice to have that represented.
It’s also called El Bronx 😂
I would like to say thank you so very much for broadcasting the Bronx, my hometown, the way it should be. People always tell me how boring the Bronx is but I always say, "There is no such thing as a boring place. There is however lazy people who don't know how to find things to do". I appreciate you and one of the many TH-camrs who truly can make any place be enjoyable. Thank you 😭😭😭 I must check these places out once again since I am still in the Bronx.
Edit: Only a few places I never knew existed but I really am excited to check out. Many people don't know about Edgar Allen Poe's Cottage, Pelham Bay Park being the biggest park in NYC [not Central Park], and Wave Hill Public Garden. There are islands there close to the Bronx too like North Brothers Island but some you may not access. Oh and you can't forget City Island [which to me has amazing seafood 😋].
Thank you Dorlisa! The Bronx is awesome and I'm happy to showcase it! Thanks for your other suggestions!
When I was a little girl, about 10 years old, about 50 years ago me and my friends would walk across the top of that water fall to sneak into the botanical gardens. Great memories.
That is so cool!
The Bronx dirty now! Citizens deserve better!!!!!!!!!! I know cus that's my stomping ground. It needs a good washing n scrubbing daily! Fix the streets. Wash the curbs and side walks down on alternate side parking cus sweeping with those nasty trucks 🚚 ain't cuttin' it.
You can't go into the NYBG through that waterfall. That (man-made) waterfall, is located on E. 180th, off of Boston Rd. The NYBG, is located north of Fordham Rd, by Southern Blvd. So that's a physical impossibility, unless you found some sort of portal, that teleported you there. That's the Bronx Zoo, on the other side, of that waterfall, and it'll leave you, by the lift, off of where the trolley runs by. You'll also be knee high in mud.
@@randee4550 I lived across the street from that waterfall almost 50 years ago before lamberg projects was built. That park was different back then but you're right, there is no way to follow the river north through the zoo. I remember my father going in the water back then. You cant do that now.
These videos make my bronxite heart happppy!!!
Just down the block from the West Farm Rapids is an entrance to the Bronx Zoo so you can make a day of it.
More please. Thank you for showing the positivity of our borough.
Another great place would be New York Botanical Gardens. My favorite time is during Christmas holidays when they have the train show. Also The Bronx Zoo,. The Bronx Museum.
Great tips! Thank you!
Thank you Sarah for highlighting the Bronx, definitely lots of hidden gems. Near the St. James Church on the Grand Concourse, is Edgar Allen Poe’s house which is a museum. You also have to check out City Island.
Great tips! Thank you!
More Bronx videos are a must: Fordham University, Pell Mansion, Pelham Bay Park, City Island, Poe Cottage, Grand Concourse, Orchard Beach,Franz Siegel Park, Villa Charlotte Bronte, to name a few!!
I like the video! I Always tell people that The Bronx is beautiful; the media downplay it by only showing the crimes and crimes is everywhere in a America. I love to see and hear the history of Woodlawn cemetery and White Plains Road. Don't forget the Caribbean food!
....it's dirty though. especially the streets and over and under passes. The Bronx citizens deserve better PERIODTT.
Your videos are consistently so good. You make me wanna step up my game. Also that burrito looks 🔥🔥😂😂
For my opinion The Bronx have the best Hispanic foods! 😋🔥 Take care your self Sarah for the baby 🍼👶 I support you!
I'm so glad I stumbled onto this video - it's remarkable how even after decades of living in NYC, you can still be surprised at the beauty of some of its hidden spots.
Sara is the best!! I’m a local New Yorker and haven’t heard of 90 % of these gems 💎 thank you friend. Keep up the great 👏🏼😌 work.
I'm always telling people about the beauty of the bronx. The architecture, hidden stories and the likes. Great video
They used to be purely mostly white.
Just tried Taqueria Tlaxcalli, and it was amazing! Wish I’d known about it when I lived a few blocks from there!
FYI, the Chang Li market around the corner on Benedict Ave is a fantastic place. It’s got a ridiculous selection of imported foods, really unbelievable. The produce and seafood are off the hook!
I was out of ideas where to venture out this weekend, but now I know!!
Yay! Happy to help!
You crushed PART 2 Sarah! Can't wait for PART 3!! 🔥🔥🔥
Definitely surprised by the West Farm Rapids, Abandoned Railway and Secret Tiffany Windows.
Excited to check out Casa Grande Cigars too as I recently got into cigars and have been looking for a great spot in the Bronx.
My wife reminded me that I totally should of suggested Taqueria Tlaxcalli. So glad you ended up finding out about and covering them. Their fried chicken tacos are so good after those burritos!! Great content as always. 💪 Thank you!!
As a child back in the early 60's, we lived close enough that my mom would take me and my sisters to the waterfall at least once or twice a week. Later, we moved close to the Bronx zoo. So close, that we went there nearly every day just to play.
Good morning thank you for the tour of the Bronx I've been in the Bronx all my life 67 years and I can actually say I am visit most of the places you showcased but thanks for sharing your insights I will be watching from now on bye
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it
I love living in the Bronx 💜
The Bronx has the largest park within the five boroughs: Pelham Bay Park. It’s actually really beautiful to take a day and picnic around there. Surprisingly enough, it has more natural landscapes than nearly all the boroughs as well. These things make it beautiful. And the food too!
I see you have joined the same club I have - eating takeout in your car! I have done a lot of that in the past couple months with restaurants in Michigan having indoor dining closed. However, my dining room is a Honda instead of a Toyota. I love that the Bronx has a lot of natural attractions to check out! Awesome video, Sarah!
We are team eat in the car! hahaha Glad to know you understand what that is like!
Born & Raised....🏆🏆🏆🏆🔥🔥🔥🔥 & made me the POWERFUL WOMAN I am today💣 Moved to another State for 7 yrs & moved right BACK......LOVE MY CITY with all of the flaws and all💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
This was done VERY nice & enjoyed how u pointed out the history🏆THANK YOU DOLL, LOVED THIS💕
I am from and live in the Bronx. Thanks for this. We've always had a lot to offer.
This is special to me. Back in my youth we lined up a piece of rope up on tree and swing dive into the river behind the waterfall. If you're old enough you'll remember that. It was lots of fun and the Bronx Zoo was right next door. In fact there was way to get in the zoo up stream.The entrance into park seem the same except for bbq's they were not there then, park seem to changed though wish you showed more of it from behind the sign. Thank you for sharing this walk thru of my pass. Stay safe and Happy New Year
Wow that is so cool! I bet it was a lot of fun :)
Bronx Night Market has been doing daytime events on Saturdays and Sundays. The website and their social media should have more updates for their spring return. We went after Thanksgiving on a Saturday around lunchtime and it was too good.
Another great BX video with so much enthusiasm too!! 😺 You should add addresses and websites to the businesses that you highlight, so that they can be more easily identifiable. Will have to try Taqueria Tlaxcalli when I get back to work/taking the subway again (when this pandemic ends). It is near the Castle Hill Ave station on the #6 subway line which I would pass every day. 😋
Check out La Masa Colombian restaurant in Morris Park which offers tons of vegan options. Also, Bartow Pell Mansion, Poe Park Cottage and Visitor Center, pelham Bay Park the largest of all NYC Parks, Kingsbridge Armory (biggest armory in the world)
Gotta respect the dr browns cream soda choice
For sure!
I have LIVED in the BRONX, ALL of my LIFE! I LOVE the ****(ENERGY)**** of the BRONX!
The BRONX has gotten a LOT BETTER since the BAD old days
in the 70, 80 and 90 !
I think the BRONX, is GREAT!!!
It's over a year since I found your youtube and was planning a trip to the US....and canceling it due to COVID.
Meanwhile, it's good that you constantly uploading great content to watch.
Even though I cannot visit yet, I really enjoy watching you guys and the city of NY from Japan.
VanCourtland park is a beautiful spot, I run there almost every day... nice to learn about some of it's history
I just had lunch an hour ago, and that burrito and those tacos STILL made me hungry!
I don't blame you lol It is worth having a double lunch at this spot!
Growing up in The Bronx in 80's, it seems there has been a complete change to how the boro looks and feels. Change happens and it seems to be for the better.
Sarah, please do another Bronx spotlight in the Spring/Summer and head to the Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum.
I never knew about the Bronx River, or the waterfalls. I will definitely visit, if I come to NY.
Your walking through one of my stomping grounds love it thanks for the Bronx love my friend
I hope developers and gentrifiers don't see this video =/ my rent is already too high
Props to you for showcasing the best Latino rapper there was and probably ever will be. Pun was a lyrical genius. The boogie down is my home and it does get overlooked. Yeah it's tough out here but we do have a lot to offer. Not sure if you know but the Bronx does have more park space than any other borough in New York. Peace and love 🤙🏽
First time watching your videos and I loved the energy and the enthusiasms you give! It made me want to visit the Bronx. I will be looking forward to your videos.
Wow born and raised in The Bronx. Moved out long ago but its still my place.
Thank you for highlighting the Bronx, it’s an amazing borough and deserves as much love as all the others 👍🏻
The Bronx..My grandmother lived in the Bronx. Took the 7th Ave IRT, I think,
which became an elevated train and got off on Simpson stop. But fondest memory is, I graduated Cardinal Hayes High School on the Grand Concourse. Wont disclose the year.
Happy to see u back. Hope u r doing good.
Love your neighborhood specific videos. Thank you so much Sarah! You're the best.
Excellent video. I live in the Bronx and I've been to many of those areas and even I added stuff to my map to check out eventually! Thanks.
Hi chica, these videos popped up on my TV and phone today. So far I've watched this one and the Harlem one and I love them. Ik you don't live in the city but I would LOVE if you redid a series like this one, to help those of us who are manifesting moving to NYC lol
I can understand if one is short on time with the visit to NYC, especially first timers, to stick to the famous tourist sites. For those who are not, it is highly suggested to visit an outer borough (The Bronx, Brooklyn, Staten Island and Queens) and go to some under the radar areas that are both unique to NYC yet are shockingly "non typical!"
Love this!! Thank you for sharing!
Actually if you continue walking the putnam trail you can still find pieces of the actual tracks put aside of the trail. I found one piece 2 years ago when I went on my walks
That is good to know!
I love your tours and I want to visit Ny sooo badly! Can’t wait to visit the Bronx.
You guys are going to have a beautiful baby! So happy for you!💙
Riverdale seems very family oriented. And I would to see the waterfalls, didn't know the Bronx had waterfalls.
Thanks for showing love to the BX.
Thanks for sharing your videos with us. They are very informative and very interesting. Love them all. Rosalind from West Palm Beach Florida
Botanical gardens is nice as well.
Re: Bronx River - Now you know why there's a Saw Mill River Parkway.
Also, long ago, my Dad and I were rowing on the Bronx River - I was rowing south and he was relaxing. He opens his eyes, yells 'Holy Smokes', and grabs an oar. We turn that thing around as fast as we could because we almost went over those falls!
My old hood, I grew up in Fordham and University, as kids we passed this church all the time. Either going to school, the post office or to go play at St James Park. Great video Sara saludes al Chapin de Luis 🇬🇹
I live a block away from the Big Pun Mural. I've seen it since I was a kid. They've actually change the mural a couple times before the one on the video, and I've seen the artists change it too.
I'm born and raised in the Bronx and I did not know about that rail line.
Lovely video, a beautiful virtual walk, it's very relaxing. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video...would have never known about these places without this video. Makes me want to visit....after the pandemic is over
So when I was little and my grandparents lived on Fordham and University, my grandfather would bring me to St. James Church. They had a thrift store and my grandfather would yap with the ladies who ran the place while I walked around in circles.
This was a nice video!!!!
You always make the food look SO GOOD!
Thanks, good stream💪🙂
Wow that waterfall is dope! I can't believe I've never visited the Bronx during any of my visits to NYC, definitely gonna try Liebman's Deli!!
Yes you must!
She fails to mention that waterfall is in the ghetto.
Remember b4 u come here the joker steps are here too the locals are not nice I'm just letting u know if u get randomly punched in the face walking down the street cuz someone had a bad that that's the bx
@@louistroche5830 right in-between Lambert projects n the bx zoo lol she's crazy lineing ppl up like that
I live in all 5 Boroughs and I love all 5 Boroughs, so much history and attractions
Great work. In from the bronx and I'm pround.
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work Bronx river west farmers aruther ave castle hill park Chester and many more to name 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Omg I been missing so much thanks I love the video
I've got to see if Liebman's delivers and the Taquiera. Never knew about the cigar place. Thanks for highlighting my borough in your video and congratulations on your pregnancy.
You should try exploring: Melrose, Morrisannia, Hunts Point & Soundview as well ;)
Totally want to check out the old train tracks in van courtlandt.
And the Jewish deli. Yum.
And the cigar place.
Love your videos.
Pastrami and pregnancy? Have to look that up.
Loved the video guys 🤗🥰. I’m not sure whether I’ll be able to get over there at the end of September (going to have to get things organised for late June to make it happen) but, it looks interesting. 🍻😉
Sarah u have the best videos Thanks Luis♥️♥️🍼🍼
Thanks for pointing out the West farm rapids , I'll definitely check it out when it gets warmer. Some places to consider: Barretto Point Park, Bruckner Bar and Grill, sound view park. That's all that comes to mind now. Subcribed!
I remember when me and brother use to play in that water ....they kinda ruined it by closing it off it was fun to swim in and jump off the water fall..they also had like a rockslide that im sure they took out
There are some great spots by pelham bay park. Equestrian center, pell mansion, golf courses, and city island.
I always wanted to meet you and you was so close where I live 😭😭😭
For sure will visit The Bronx! It reminds me of East LA in California. Saludos desde Hollywood California 😎✨✨✨
Great vid from 🇬🇧
Hola! Great you guys made it to my neighborhood in Riverdale. Liebman's is great their meat knish is also very good. Riverdale is an excellent diverse community for raising a family and apartments here though pricey are half the price of yours.
We're going to Parkchester tomorrow to try Taqueria! 😋
Enjoy!
@@SarahFunky We had the burrito and nachos. It was good. Near Riverdale on Kingsbridge and 231st Street we have Mi Lindo San Miguelitos and their burrito are bomb 💣 as well as their tacos and nachos. You must visit when you come back!
We also ordered Indian food next to Taqueria T and had their chicken tikka masala and naan bread and I must say it's the best in The Bronx!
Love this series. 💕
Thanks Leila!
Cool stuff Mrs. Funk. Food, old abandoned train station. Nature
Born & raised on Fordham Rd. Gotta pop up to some of these spots & take pics.
Thank you!!!!!
Food looks delicious!
these are soooo good
love it, making a list for when I get back to NYC. I stayed it brooklyn and made it to queens on the last trip but still need to get to bronx.
Dont come
Don’t Come
@@RellupNorth not any time soon of course maybe next year
@@Josue-th2ho not any time soon of course maybe next year
0:59-2:44 Longwood, 2:45-5:17 Parkchester, 5:18-6:56 West Farms, 10:11-13:01 Belmont.
There are some other smaller waterfalls along the Bronx river around there. And by Orchard Beach if you go to the left towards the park away from the beach, you get to these lil hilly trails and even islands.
I love how you find all these dope places in this borough. I live near Riverdale actually. Btw if you and Louie are down for some good Mexican food, stop by Metate! It's literally near Liebmans on Johnson Ave. Recommend their margaritas and steak burrito! :)
Good to see Sarah is still working you need to pay the rent.😆 Yet another superb video. I also wish my TH-cam videos were as good, one can only dream.😰 This lady gets better and better. Thank you so much.👍
Great video
i love your channel
Definitely used to run across the rapids but we called them the bronx river rapids.
Omg you went to my favorite Mexican restaurant. Love the chicken nachos, burritos and horchatta 🤤
