New York City, hailed as the city that never sleeps, fondly known as the Big Apple, is home to approximately eight million people and with the population still expected to rise in the years to come. New York City touted as the center of the world maybe because each part of the globe has left an indelible mark in this place. From food to works of art to culture exhibits to tourist spots, whatever it is you want your senses to take pleasure in, New York City most probably has it. Hotels: New York is a city of high rise towers and a number of those are hotels that you can take your pick of. These buildings range from the five star hotels to the funky ones to hotels with “affordable” packages.

Large suites equipped with kitchenettes are also available.
Hilton Time Square :. The Hilton Time Square is one of the most elegant hotels in New York City, with a theater and even its own wax museum!

Tourist Spots: With so many points of interest to visit in New York City, it is sometimes quite difficult to know where to start. However, of course, we will try our very best. A visit to New York City would not be complete without touring the following sites:
Empire State Building: Need I explain?
The Statue of Liberty: take a ferry ride to this gigantic statue, a gift to the United States from the French government some centuries ago.
Madam Tussaud’s Wax Museum: This particular site is in Ripley’s because of the uncanny resemblance of its inhabitants.
World Trade Center: Now, I know that technically speaking, this is not a happy place but it would do all of us good to pay our respects to the victims of the September 11 bombing. This tragedy has at least proved that the people of New York City would not let any terrorist attack faze them into cowering in terror. Hail, hail New York City!
Remember to have plenty of cab fare, a map and a cell phone(in case you get lost).
