Writer Pearl Buck once called New York City “a place apart,” and this giant urban center remains unlike any other in the world.
New York City is known for museums, nightlife, historic sites, parks, and shopping. Your plan includes some of its best attractions: tour the pleasant surroundings at Central Park, appreciate the history behind Statue of Liberty National Monument, admire the landmark architecture of Rockefeller Center, and get great views at Top of the Rock Observation Deck.

To find other places to visit and other tourist information, refer to the New York City trip maker .

If you are flying in from Canada, the closest major airports are La Guardia Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport and John F Kennedy International Airport. In May, daytime highs in New York City are 24°C, while nighttime lows are 15°C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 23rd (Wed) to allow time to travel back home.
