New York Attractions


So many New York Attractions and so little time. And money. Those are the major pitfalls. Everything else is adventure city. You'd need an entire year of sightseeing in New York City and still not get round everything the city that never sleeps has to offer. So how to you choose from all of the New York Attractions?
It's not easy to decide how to spend your time in the Big Apple.
With so many things to see and do, where do you begin? This top-ten list of must-see New York City attractions is a good place to start.

The Statue of Liberty
The Statue of Liberty is one of the most popular of all New York attractions and no trip to the Big Apple is complete without a visit to this iconic structure.

Empire State Building
The Empire State Building is possibly the most famous skyscraper in the world and one of the greatest New York attractions.

Times Square
Times Square is not really a square, it's more of a district, bordered by 6th Avenue and 9th Avenue and by 39th and 52nd Streets, and is one of the greatest New York attractions.

Madison Square Gardens
New York City's Madison Square Garden is sometimes called "The Most Famous Arena in the World". It is a 20,000-seat arena located atop the city's Pennsylvania Station on 7th Avenue between 31st and 33rd Streets.

United Nations HQ
The United Nations Headquarters is located on an 18-acre site along the East River in New York City.

American Museum of Natural History
Located on New York City's upper west side, the American Museum of Natural history continues to be one of the world's most important natural history collections and research facilities.

Central Park
Central Park is Manhattan's back garden - in a city of high-rise apartments with a dense population, this 843-acre oasis is a place to take a walk, read a book, attend a concert, and much, much more.

Wall Street
Wall Street, a narrow street in lower Manhattan between Broadway and the East River, was the first permanent home of the New York Stock Exchange.

Brooklyn Bridge
Probably one of the most recognizable landmarks in New York City, the Brooklyn Bridge is the oldest suspension bridge in the United States and at 6016-feet long, one of the longest too.

Carnegie Hall
This beautiful and acoustically perfect concert hall, or more accurately, three concert halls, has been the host of over 50,000 events in its long history.
