New York is one of the premier cities in the world, on just about every measurement, the city on the north-east seaboard of the United States beats almost all challengers. Whatever you''re looking for, at whatever time of year, you can find it in New York.

The names and locations that make New York famous roll of the tongue: the Statue of Liberty (possible the most famous monument in the world), Time Square, Ellis Island, Broadway, the list is more or less endless and each site is more famous than the last.

Broadway is one of the major attractions for visitors to the city, rivalling London''s West End as the greatest area for theatre productions in the world, tens of millions of people visit Broadway''s many theatres every night to watch some of the finest performers on the planet. A Broadway show is not cheap, but there is something special about the experience that makes it an experience you''ll remember for your entire life.

Another of New York''s famous locations is Central Park, probably the most famous park in the world. Viewed from the air Central Park is an enormous rectangle cut out in the middle ...
... of hundreds of high rise buildings. It is beautiful all the year round but is particularly worth visiting in the winter when you can get a horse and cart ride around the park in the snow and go ice-skating in one of many outdoor rinks.

Hidden away in Central Park is also Belvedere Castle, a somewhat incongruous site in the middle of New York. The castle was built in the middle of the 19th century as something of an homage to medieval Europe and is definitely worth checking out.

One of the reasons for New York''s enduring appeal is the friendliness of the residents and the atmosphere in the city. It is an amazing place to visit at all times of year, with each season bringing out something new and unique about the city. New York hotels are some of the best in the world, so whenever you go, you''re guaranteed first class occasion and a first class experience. Freelance writer Bonny Kominek has spent much of the last year exploring America but still rates the Big Apple as their favourite US travel destination. As a regular visitor they recommend Octopus Travel for New York hotels.
