About New York City

New York City pakker skyskrapere, berømte museer, Broadway og dusinvis av egne bydeler inn i fem bydelsområder som koker dag og natt.

Manhattan er det klassiske første stoppet. Times Square gløder over teaterdistriktet, Central Park strekker seg kvartal etter kvartal mellom Upper East Side og Upper West Side, og Empire State Building, Chrysler Building og Rockefeller Center former silhuetten i Midtown. I Downtown ligger 9/11-minnesmerket, Wall Street og Brooklyn Bridge tett sammen, og båter går forbi Frihetsgudinnen til Ellis Island.
