Destination informationDestination information

New York City isn't one place, it's a hundred different places, all jostling for your attention. From the uptown Glitz of the Upper West Side to the downtown bohemian chic of the West Village, from Chinatown to Little Italy, from Murray Hill to Midtown, you are presented with entirely different sights, sounds and even smells in each neighbourhood. As if this weren't enough, interesting new areas keep on springing up with their trendy acronyms. The latest is DUMBO (we kid you not - it stands for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass!). Make a vague plan of what you want to see, but beware - the fizzing energy of Manhattan is bewitching, and it could carry you completely off course. Never mind - adventures are always guaranteed in this amazing international metropolis. Just make sure you see the best sights, like the Empire State with its amazing views, and leave plenty of time for the fabulous shopping!

Eats & drinksEats & drinks

There are thousands of restaurants in this city representing every type of cooking possible. 21 Club is a New York institute as is Diner, a converted dining car with a loyal clientele. Chat 'n' Chew, just off Union Square, is a heartland eatery where people chat as they wait to chew on gooey, piping hot macaroni and cheese or a mountainous Holy Cow burger!

Sightseeing ideasSightseeing ideas

The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island
Take time to see this icon of America up close. The museum at Ellis Island is also fascinating, telling the story of 12 million prospective immigrants.
New York Stock Exchange
Located in the financial district, visitors can witness from the gallery the exciting and sometimes tense atmosphere on the shop floor.
Central Park
Hire a bicycle to get round this lovely expanse of greenery which is home to the zoo, an ice-skating rink, boating lake and Strawberry Fields, a section of park devoted to the memory of John Lennon.

Getting aroundGetting around

The fastest way to get from A to B in Manhattan is by subway although for sheer street-level stimulation, you can't beat walking!
