Lara Jean Song Covey might be in a committed relationship with Peter Kavinsky, but she takes on another love in To All the Boys: Always and Forever: New York City. During their senior year class trip, Lara Jean, Chris, Peter, Trevor, and the rest of the gang joyously check out all that the city has to offer, and their adventures are packed with landmark stops in NYC. Just on the bus ride to their hotel, the group passes by the Freedom Tower, Chrysler Building, Radio City Music Hall, and New York Public Library. And of course, there's a whole montage set to Suzi Wu's "Eat Them Apples" as they unabashedly take touristy selfies in, wink wink, the Big Apple.

Needless to say, Lara Jean and Peter's time in the city is a whirlwind. As Lauv puts it in the beloved song from the movies, they just know how "to be young and in love in New York City." In case you need a bucket list for your next NYC escape like Lara Jean and Peter K's, we've rounded up all the major spots that they hit up!

Little Cupcake Bakeshop

Lara Jean and Peter sneakily break curfew by hitting up the Little Cupcake Bakeshop, where they grab some pastries and talk about their future. This earth-conscious shop is known for favorites such as its Brooklyn Blackout cake, which Food & Wine called the one of the best chocolate cakes in America.

The Oculus at the World Trade Center Transportation Hub

Peter and Trevor kick off their tour of NYC by taking selfies in front of the World Trade Center Transportation Hub. The stunning structure is supposed to resemble a dove in flight.

Grand Central Station

Chris and Lara Jean start their journey at another famous transit center: Grand Central Station. You might also remember Lily visiting the station in Netflix's Dash & Lily!

Central Park

Next on the itinerary for Peter and Trevor: Central Park. The guys gladly take selfies that feature the park's beautiful green fields and skyline.

Levain Bakery

A baking connoisseur, Lara Jean, of course, has to stop by Levain Bakery. The shop boasts world-famous sweet treats, known for favorites such as its classic chocolate chip cookies.

Pershing Square

The boys make their way to the intersection between Park Avenue and East 42nd Street by the Grand Central Terminal. While Chris and LJ's snaps give us views of the stunning interior, the boys are out on the street by Pershing Square.

Firehouse, Engine Company 31

The girls take a selfie with firefighters at the historic Firehouse, Engine Company 31, which boasts French chateau-style architecture. You'll immediately recognize the bucket list-worthy location by its bright red doors.

Macy's Herald Square

Chris isn't all that impressed with this Macy's since they have one in Portland anyway. But as its huge sign indicates, the Herald Square Macy's is the largest one in the world.

Brooklyn Bridge

First opened in 1883, the stunning Brooklyn Bridge now sees around 100,000 cars on a daily basis. It makes for a stunning NYC memory, so Peter and Trevor enthusiastically use it as a backdrop for yet another picture.

Flatiron Building

LJ and Chris goof around by Madison Square, where they capture snaps of some of NYC's most iconic skyscrapers. One of the high-rises they spot is the triangular Flatiron Building, which is named after its resemblance to a flat-iron clothes iron.

Magnolia Bakery

We're seeing a theme here: Lara Jean loves a sweets shop! The iconic Magnolia Bakery is beloved for its tasty treats, including banana pudding, vanilla cupcakes, and more.

Times Square

The gang spot Times Square while on the bus, but they also hit it up during their official school tour. The infamous intersection is more or less the neon-blazed commercial and entertainment heart of NYC, so it's unsurprising that LJ and Chris stop by during the peak of their adventure there.

Washington Square Park at NYU

It's at Washington Square where Lara Jean really begins to fall in love with the city. When they spot Gen, Chris points out to her BFF that the park is actually a part of the NYU campus, which spikes her interest in the college despite her plan to head off to California.
