A brief introduction to New York
An epicentre of the arts, New York boasts an international culture, world-renowned architecture, and beautiful parks that combine to create an iconic and mesmerising city.
Arguably, the most quintessential New York experience can be found in Times Square - an electrifying hub of bright lights, skyscrapers and extravagant shopping malls, all accentuated by street performers and food stalls. Nearby, you’ll also find Broadway, home to some of the world’s most prestigious theatrical performances, as well as the Radio City Music Hall which sits at the foot of the famous Rockefeller Centre.
Be sure to visit one of the city’s many fascinating museums, such as the Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim. Architecture lovers are recommended to visit the Brooklyn Bridge and Grand Central Terminal. The Big Apple is also known for its lush parks, some of the more popular ones include the sprawling Central Park, the High Line, and The Battery – a green space with scenic views across to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty.
