What To Expect When A Traveler Tours NYC

By Jill Faulkner


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.

The Statue of Liberty is easily one of the most famous locations on the planet. It is therefore only right that a visitor to this amazing city pays homage to this landmark. The statue can be reached via a ferry as it is located on an island. Anyone who visits this location will obviously be an envy of others and will have a story to tell.

Being the headquarters of the United Nations, New York offers a visitor the unique chance of visiting this building that represents the unity of mankind over the years. The UN building is recognized as one of the first buildings in the world to be constructed in conformance with modern building standards.

On top of visiting the amazing modern marvels, there are enough historical venues that one cannot miss. One of these is the various museums located in the city. These museums offer historical artefacts from all corners of the world. One gets to visit the entire world while in these museums. An entire day will quickly pass by as one is in one of these amazing locations. One always gets so immersed in human history that they get a feeling that there is so much to see and so little time.

When anyone tours NYC, there are some pointers they should not forget. To access Liberty Island where the Statue of Liberty is located, one needs to travel by water. On the other hand, one needs to travel by air in order to appreciate the amazing views of the skyline of the city. Land tours then give one close-ups of the various locations within the city.
