Attractions in New York
Information about all the top attractions in New York
With so many great attractions to see in New York, fitting in everything you want to do in the city can seem daunting. Literally hundreds of sights vie for your attention, and at times it can seem more sensible to hide in your hotel room rather than get out and see everything on offer.
First time visitors to New York will want to visit the big four - Times Square, the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, and Central Park, as well as fitting in some shopping and maybe a Broadway show. Other attractions include the chance to see a baseball game at Yankee Stadium a visit to one of the many museums, and a dinner cruise on the Hudson River in order to see the skyline of New York lit up at night.
More seasoned visitors to New York will want to get off the beaten track a little, perhaps explore Central Park in more detail, shop for a day on Madison Avenue, visit the Guggenheim or St Patrick's Cathedral, or wander through the Meat Packing District at dawn to get a real French Connection feel.
The most memorable thing about New York is that there are so many flavours to this unique destination, that no two people will want the same thing, and every one will discover their own New York.
