Just got back from nyc, the madam tussauds wax museum was cool. Its a bunch of wax figures of celebrities that look just like them. I also took a tour of nbc studios that was really interesting and cool to see.  

Answer 3

empire state, go twice, once in the day and once at night it's amazing!

also the Hershey store in times square, have hot dogs from the stands and spend money in Bloomingdales to get yourself a little brown bag!

Answer 4

here are some suggestions and tips from our personal experience:

we went to NY for a week and stayed at the Hilton Embassy Suites.

we had a blast!!!

there's a book called Lonely Planet (NYC)

it is a really really helpful book for tourists like us because it includes walking tours, etc, and places to eat.

you should visit Serendipity for dessert :)

by the way, instead of waiting for hours in line to get to the statue of liberty, you may opt to have the NY waterway tour instead. This way, you will save enough time to tour other parts of the city :)

there's also the famous BULL at the financial district :)

you should also try the yummiest Pizza Margherita at  'Lil Frankie  in East Village ^,^

if you have more time, try walking the stretch of Brooklyn Bridge.

this serves as an exercise too.. hihihi

also, do visit Saint Patricks's Cathedral at 5th avenue.

don't miss to go inside.

it's wonderful!!!

we also went to Top of the Rock instead of the Empire State Building to avoid the long line hihihi because we were afraid we won't have enough time to see other parts of NYC :)

for shopping, you may want to visit Century 21, just across the former WTC.

you should have lunch/brunch at Cafe lalo!!! or at Sarabeth's :)

we chose Cafe Lalo hihihi because of the ambiance and because it's famous.

To relax, try having a picnic at Central Park.

we chose to eat at the top of one huge rock there to have e good view of the whole central park :)

then, we went to MET (entrance is by donation only, you don't have to give 20 USD)

if you're a techie like my friends, you may want to visit the MAC store. it is now a tourist spot because of its unique architecture :p

DON'T MISS eating at PARADOU!!!

it's a MUST!!!

trust me on this!

you also gotta watch a broadway show! definitely!

there's WICKED and SPAMALOT :)

Answer 5

Dirty water hot dogs, the double decker tourist bus, Times Square, rise a subway downtown and go to any little shop.  Do the tourist thing- get on line in Times Square and buy tix to any b'way show, say hi to Naked Cowboy if he's there, read the homeless people's signs- some are really funny, Museums- any, but please- don't stop and look up near a corner.  It makes it hard for us to get to work.  Welcome to NY and have a great time!

Answer 6

the empire state building; watch the amazing view from atop~

times square; there's ripley's believe it or not, huge mcdonalds, m&m world, hersheys and much more. check out museums, malls, restaurants and chill out at central park. take pics and embrace the city that's full of life 24/7 ;)

oohh and remember to always buy a souvenir when you leave NYC <3

Answer 7

try some tours and attractions http://www.citysightsny.com/
