10 days in New York City Itinerary

Writer Pearl Buck once called New York City “a place apart,” and this giant urban center remains unlike any other in the world.

Museum-lovers will get to explore 9/11 Memorial and New York Public Library. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to St. Patrick's Cathedral and Dumbo. Change things up with these side-trips from New York City: Bushkill Falls (in Bushkill), Hyde Park (Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum, Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site, &more) and Woodbury Common Premium Outlets (in Central Valley). There's much more to do: contemplate in the serene atmosphere at The Met Cloisters, don't miss a visit to Central Park, appreciate the extensive heritage of Brooklyn Heights Promenade, and contemplate the long history of Ellis Island.
