About New York City
New York City packar skyskrapor, berömda museer, Broadway och dussintals egna stadsdelar i fem stadsdelsområden som sjuder dag och natt.
Manhattan är den klassiska första anhalten. Times Square glöder över teaterdistriktet, Central Park sträcker sig kvarter efter kvarter mellan Upper East Side och Upper West Side, och Empire State Building, Chrysler Building och Rockefeller Center formar Midtowns silhuett. I Downtown ligger 9/11-minnesplatsen, Wall Street och Brooklyn Bridge nära varandra, och båtar går förbi Frihetsgudinnan till Ellis Island.
Top-ranked sights in New York City: Statue of Liberty, Central Park, National September 11 Memorial & Museum.
