If you’re a local looking to spice up your Instagram feed, or you’re coming to Brooklyn on a trip and looking to find your most photo-ready spots, we have you covered.
Instagram the bridges
Head to DUMBO for the most glorious views of the Manhattan Bridge, which connects Brooklyn, and Manhattan. DUMBO itself is also one of Brooklyn’s most high-end and charming neighborhoods, with cobblestoned streets that will make you feel like you’ve been transported back in time. Alternatively, walk across the Brooklyn Bridge for some amazing views throughout your whole journey.
Prospect Park on your Instagram
We like to think of Prospect Park as Central Park’s cool cousin. Designed by the same landscape architect as Central Park, Prospect Park boasts many fantastic attractions. From Grand Army Plaza to the Brooklyn Library nearby, to ice skating in the winter and outdoor concerts in the summer, to the playgrounds and zoo, you can find hundreds of opportunities for photos without stepping outside of its 585 acres.
The most Instagrammable brunch in Brooklyn
Few things look better than getting some great food on your feed? Brunch is a mainstay in your NYC life, whether you’re opting for a mimosa-fueled version or a healthier take. Smorgasburg on the weekends in Williamsburg remains a great place to try all kinds of different delicacies. For a more refined, sit-down take, we love Sunday in Brooklyn. Their pancakes are the things that social media dreams are made from.
