About New York City

New York City bundelt wolkenkrabbers, beroemde musea, Broadway en tientallen eigen buurten in vijf stadsdelen die dag en nacht zoemen.

Manhattan is de klassieke eerste stop. Times Square gloeit boven het theaterdistrict, Central Park strekt zich over tientallen blokken uit tussen de Upper East en Upper West Side, en het Empire State Building, het Chrysler Building en Rockefeller Center bepalen de skyline van Midtown. In Lower Manhattan liggen het 9/11 Memorial, Wall Street en de Brooklyn Bridge dicht bij elkaar, en vanaf de kade varen boten langs het Vrijheidsbeeld naar Ellis Island.

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