When a traveler tours NYC, the first thing they will notice will be the presence of skyscrapers everywhere. This is the capital of skyscrapers and has been since they were invented. That is one of the main defining points of this city. It is also a very cosmopolitan city and as such, is also considered to be the world capital of culture.

One of the must-see locations in New York is of course the Statue of Liberty. This was a gift from the French republic to celebrate one hundred years of American independence. Since the statue is located on an island, it can be accessed by ferry.

One place that a tourist must visit is the world-famous Broadway. Anyone who visits this place always leaves with fond memories to share. It is therefore wise to include it in ones itinerary. It is truly a good place to relax.

Home to the first skyscrapers, like the Empire State Building, the city also attracts many who marvel at its architecture. The Empire State Building stood as the worlds tallest skyscraper for several decades and is now holding the title of New Yorks tallest building again after September 2001. The city has several parks where lovers of nature can visit as well. One of these places is Central Park. This is the location within the city where New Yorkers go to escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, while still within the city itself.

A visit to Empire State Building is a must as well. This is one of the most famous skyscrapers around the world due to its status as among one of the first. It is a monument of the human spirit and determination to reach for the skies. With 102 floors, this building offers an unparalleled view of the city, something it has been giving for many decades.

While the actual location of the statue can be crowded at times, there is always the option of seeing it from one of the many islands that surround Liberty Island. This gives one a full view of the majestic statue and an option to capture it on camera for posterity. One has the option of asking their tour operator to accord them a location where they can view the statue with all its amazing beauty and majesty.

To tour the city, there are several companies which offer these services at competitive packages. One needs to ensure that they get a good deal from an operator who offers transport by land, air and water. This is because one will need to use these three means of movement in order to fully enjoy the trip.

Central Park is another amazing location that a visitor to this city will need to make time for. No one tours NYC without paying a visit to Central Park. Well, at least no one can claim to have really toured the city without visiting this park. It offers calm and serenity in the middle of one of the busiest and fastest moving cities on earth. With its nature parks and relaxation spots, Central Park is a true marvel and a getaway unlike any other. It offers a natural relief while still within the city.
