10 Things To Do in New York City
Tip: I recommend a New York City Pass for sightseeing the “main attractions”. I find it saves money and you already have tickets for most locations you plan to visit. Click here to buy a pass.
- Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island
- Stroll through Central Park
- Broadway- See a show and grab dinner in the area
- Empire State Building
- 9/11 Memorial and Museum
- Walk the Brooklyn Bridge
- Visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art
- Walk through Times Square
- Tenement Museum
- Grand Central Terminal
This was the hardest list to compile. I have been to NYC three times and during three different seasons. I have narrowed down my list of favorite into a top 10. New York has so many different experiences and things to do, and I’m not even sure if a week is long enough! My bucket list includes visiting NYC in all four seasons, and all I have left is summer. I planned to visit this year (June 2020), but that trip was sadly cancelled due to COVID-19. I hope to return soon because I have so many more things I would like to visit and every time I have been it has been COLD!
