When it comes to New York, one cannot forget about Wall Street, the world's financial center. Located in Lower Manhattan, this narrow street is only 500 meters long and 11 meters wide, earning it the nickname "the Wall Street". The skyscrapers on both sides tower high, giving the illusion of a deep canyon. Despite the gradual decline in influence in the financial world after the 9/11 attacks, the headquarters of the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, American Stock Exchange, New York Mercantile Exchange and New York Board of Trade still remain in Wall Street. Its influence cannot be ignored. In Bowling Green Park, there is a bronze statue of a bull which symbolizes the movement of the stock market and has become a symbol of Wall Street. The statue is always shiny due to the constant influx of visitors each year.
