I recommend Grand Central. When you walk into this old station,it's like a black and white photograph comingto life. is terminalis busier than the other terminals so watch out for people in ahurry. You can also go jogging or bike-riding in Central Park.
If you like art, then I suggest the MET (Metropolitan Museum ofArt), the Whitney or the Guggenheim. e Whitney is closer to CentralPark and has more works by younger and less-well-known Americanartists. en have dinner at a restaurant around the livelier TimesSquare.
If you want the "tourist option", then go to the top of theEmpire State Building. It's higher than the Bank of America Tower.en take the ferry to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.
If you like shopping, you can choose the cheaper option and goto Soho, or the more expensive option to Fi h Avenue. en, why notuse the subway to see New York's multicultural neighborhoods,Chinatown and Little Italy?
I'm a practical person and, when I don't have a lot of time, Ichoose a bus tour that stops at every famous monument.It's a coolerand more pleasant option because there's air-conditioninginside.

When an ape stretches o

Humans and apes cover t
