Places to see and things to do

New york being one of the busiest citys in the world is bursting with things to do. Some of the must sees are:
1. Central Park
 
Whether your just going for a stroll or getting a Bike ride Tour, Central Park is one of new yorks best attractions. If your in New York at christmas, deffinatley go ice skating in the park, it is by far the best skating, christmassy experience.
2. Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island

The statue of liberty and ellis island is a great day trip to do by boat, getting great photo oppertunities and then the tour of ellis island which is very interesting.

7. The Metropolitan Museum of Art


Thousands of sculptures and art hanging the walls of the museum it is breathtaking if your into Museums.
8. Barneys, Bendels, and Saks Fifth Avenue
   

Shop at your own risk, These luxarious department stores are heaven yet dangerous (to your credit card).

9. Serendipity 3
225 E 60th St, New York, NY 10022


Serendipity is a cute restaurant/general store, famously seen in the movie serendipity. I seriously recommend there frozen hot chocolate, which is what there known for.

10. 9/11 memorial 
I think this is a must see although it is upsetting, it is a learning experience to see what happened on that terrible day.
