USA - New York City - New York

Always vibrant and ever-bustling, New York City is one of the world’s major global cities both in size and influence. An international center of finance, politics, entertainment, and culture, it also currently holds the distinction of being the safest big city in the U.S.

Midtown is home to soaring business towers, high-end shopping districts around Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue, and world-class performing arts venues including Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center and the Broadway theaters of the Theater District. Visitors will find The Lombardy an ideal hotel base from which to explore Manhattan’s endless attractions. It is ideally located just a short walk from Trump Tower, Bloomingdale's, Tiffany's, Saks, Rockefeller Center, Central Park, and the shops of Fifth and Madison Avenues. It is also convenient to the concert halls of Center and Carnegie Hall as well as the Theater District.

Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty are top New York attractions for visitors interested in the history of immigration. Other popular destinations include the observation deck of the Empire State Building, which was for many years the world's tallest building, the landmark Rockefeller Center, neighboring Radio City Music Hall, and Times Square.

One of the city’s most famous landmarks is Manhattan’s official “backyard,” Central Park, with its 843 acres of urban meadows, ponds, playing fields, playgrounds and more.

The Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum offers a fascinating look at World War II from the perspective of an aircraft carrier docked on the Hudson River on Manhattan’s West Side. Other top museums include the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, and the American Museum of Natural History with its renowned Hayden Planetarium.

Further downtown are Greenwich Village, with its historic brownstones and cobblestone streets, and Union Square, known for its sprawling farmer’s market that draws the city’s top restaurateurs. SoHo bustles with high-end clothing boutiques, while Chelsea attracts visitors to its concentration of galleries and eclectic flea market.

The city’s historic financial center is Wall Street, the first permanent home of the New York Stock Exchange. While in lower Manhattan, many visitors are also drawn to the World Trade Center site.
