New York City boasts a tonne of famous attractions to come and visit, including the bright lights of Times Square, Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty. Tickets to go up the Empire State Building, or the nearby Top of the Rock, is great to do by day and night to see the different sides of the city. Visiting the Statue of Liberty can be done in a few ways, however taking a water taxi is a great way to get up close whilst completing a tour of the city from the Hudson River.
New York City is thriving with energy throughout the day and the night, with fancy rooftop bars looking across the incredible city skyline, to old school pubs open until the early hours. Either way, there are plenty of options to suit everyone's taste. Once the sun sets, places like Times Square and Top of the Rock are well worth the visit, seeing all of the lights glow up the city.
Being in amongst the busy city all day can wear you down, so visiting some of the popular parks can be a great way to relax including the famous Central Park, which has a perimeter of just over 6 miles. Rent a rowboat for as little as $15 an hour in the middle of central park, with a stunning backdrop onto the city skyline. Another great park to visit on a much smaller scale is Bryant Park, which hosts various free activities including table tennis and movie nights.
