New York City Some numbers: Surface 784 km²
New York, Metropolis par excellence or simply "The City", Big Apple or Urban Center, Port of entry or "Cosmopolitan Area", are the synonyms of one of the cities, in my opinion, which is absolutely worth visiting. Ten Things You Must See in NYCYou know it from your favorite Woody Allen film or Sex and the City episode. Whether you dream of combing East Village bookshops or sipping martinis in the Meatpacking District, there's something here for you. Skim our highlights and you will fall in love in a New York minute. Manhattan Skyline The iconic view of Manhattan's Skyline! Head to the Top of the Rock or the Waterfront Promenade in Williamsburg to see the Empire State Building as it gleams above city spires like a crown jewel. Empire State Building The view of Manhattan from the observation deck is astounding. Book Empire State Building tickets ahead of time to skip the line. Battery Park Battery Park is a cool green space at the tip of Manhattan along the Hudson River. Grab a picnic and catch the sunset while you marvel at the fact that this great big city is an island. Top of the Rock Rockefeller Center is an Art Deco skyscraper, and the view at the Top of the Rock is like no other. Photo op: catching the skyline here means the Empire State building is included in the view. Statue of Liberty An icon of freedom, the Statue of Liberty is a must see. Special exhibits or a climb to the top of the crown (booked in advance!) will make you feel like a part of NYC’s special history. Ellis Island The melting pot that is NYC: more than 12 million immigrants arrived here in search of the American Dream. View original manifests and get inspired by the history of Ellis Island.
