The Statue of Liberty
Dedicated to the United States from the French in 1886, it was used as a distinctive welcoming port for those who were arriving by ship to the city, throughout much of its history.Today many tourists enjoy taking the ferry over to Liberty Island to enjoy the rich history behind the piece and also take advantage of the fantastic views of the city from Lady Liberty’s crown.
9/11 Memorial and Museum
Our second choice is the 9/11 Memorial and Museum. Located at the site of the former centerpiece of the New York skyline, the World Trade Center.This impactful attraction recounts one of the darkest days in recent US history in a series of moving and informative exhibits.
The Museum of Modern Art
New York is arguably home to some of the best museums in the country. Located in the Midtown area of the city, The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) features collections that focus on more contemporary and diverse artistic productions. It’s home to many of the art world’s greats such as Andy Warhol, Cindy Sherman and many more. It also holds many important pieces of American architecture and design, such as the iconic, Eames chair. Released in the late ’50s, this amazing piece of furniture has become a statement to fine furniture design. Want to replicate the look in your home office? Check out eames.com for a selection of new, used and refurbished styles.The Yankee Stadium Tour
A must for all sports fans, head over to the Bronx for a tour of the Yankee Stadium. A significant force in NYC culture, go beyond the sights you’ve seen on TV, for an immersive and informative experience with one of their tour guides.Madison Square Garden
Another must-see destination in New York is Madison Square Garden. Named ‘The World’s Most Famous Arena’ some of the world’s most loved concerts, events and exhibitions have taken place in this iconic venue.Another one for the sports fans- The Garden is also home to the New York Rangers hockey league and basketball’s the New York Knicks.
I want to visit The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). Also, I also want to see Central Park. I want to fall in love on that place!

ReplyDeleteThis is a great guide! We love visiting New York City as a family but haven't visited some part of it. Can't wait to go back soon!
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted to see the 9/11 Memorial and Museum. There was so much that happened in that very spot, and many people lost their lives. It is a place where I could pray and honor those whose lives were tragically lost.
ReplyDeleteNew York is the most exciting city in the world. Times Square is a must-visit if you get a chance. If I get an opportunity to visit NYC again, I'd want to visit the 9/11 Memorial.
