About New York

New York riunisce grattacieli, musei celebri, teatri di Broadway e decine di quartieri distinti in cinque distretti che pulsano giorno e notte.

Manhattan è la classica prima tappa. Times Square brilla sopra il quartiere dei teatri, Central Park si allunga per isolati tra l'Upper East Side e l'Upper West Side, e l'Empire State Building, il Chrysler Building e il Rockefeller Center definiscono lo skyline di Midtown. A sud, il 9/11 Memorial, Wall Street e il ponte di Brooklyn sono vicini l'uno all'altro, e i battelli passano davanti alla Statua della Libertà fino a Ellis Island.

Top-ranked sights in New York: Statue of Liberty, Central Park, National September 11 Memorial & Museum.
