17 days in New York City Itinerary

Do some cultural sightseeing at 9/11 Memorial and Statue of Liberty National Monument. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Valley Forge National Historical Park and St. Patrick's Cathedral. Venture out of the city with trips to Society Hill (in Philadelphia), Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge (in Oceanville) and Cynwyd Heritage Trail (in Bala Cynwyd). There's still lots to do: make a trip to The Metropolitan Museum of Art, go for a walk through Central Park, steep yourself in history at Ellis Island, and stroll around The High Line.
