 Not only is “The Big Apple” the largest city in the United States, it is one of the largest in the world -- the epicenter of entertainment, fashion, art, media, technology, high finance, education and culture. Landmarks like the Empire State Building, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the Statue of Liberty are recognizable icons the world over; and Times Square, the “Crossroads of the World,” is the single-most visited attraction in the United States.
With more than 39 large theaters in the Broadway district, 12 resident performing arts groups at Lincoln Center (including the Metropolitan Opera, New York City Ballet, the Julliard School, and the New York Philharmonic), and more than 150 important museums including The Museum of Modern Art, the Guggenheim, and the Metropolitan Museum, New York’s arts culture is one of the richest in the world.
Relax in a carriage ride around Central Park, enjoy a trip on the Staten Island Ferry, stroll the New York Botanical Garden or the Bronx Zoo. Indulge in luxury shopping along Fifth Avenue or explore the cutting edge galleries and trendy boutiques of Greenwich Village and Soho. Or just stroll the city’s neighborhoods and admire the unique architecture. |

 New York City is the most-travelled international air gateway to the U.S., and is served by three international airports: John F. Kennedy, LaGuardia, and Newark Liberty. Each is within easy cab, bus, or subway distance of the city’s major hotels and attractions. New York’s subway system is the largest in the world (in terms of its number of stations) and operates 24 hours a day 7 days a week. And you’ll find its regulated cabs, extensive expressways, picturesque ferries, and efficient bus system (coupled with expensive parking and sometimes gridlocked traffic) make New York City best navigated without a car.
New York City is a vibrant, popular year-round destination. Its summers are hot and humid and winters are cold and damp, but that doesn’t stop the nearly 50 million visitors who come each year. |
