NEW YORK
Dining
No other culinary capital spans the globe as successfully as the Big Apple. It's estimated there are more than 18,000 places to dine out here. Reservations are always a good idea, especially on special occasions.
Culture
The Statue of Liberty, Times Square, the Guggenheim... New York is crammed with instantly recognisable landmarks and cultural institutions. You'll need more than one visit to see them all. Decide on a few must-see sights, then let the city take you on its own ride.
Shopping
No city in the world has such breadth and variety of stores, from bargain bazaars to the best-known names in shopping history - Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale's and Macy's - where designer names come at a fraction of the cost this side of the pond.
Getting around
The subway operates round the clock, with waiting time between trains typically a few minutes. To hail a cab, face the direction you want to travel in and stick out your arm. For all that, NYC is a walking city - it's flat and much of it on a grid.
