The Capital of the World

So much has been said about this city: exciting, vibrant, diverse. The city that 'never sleeps' offers so many things to a wanderer.

Its history and its diversity makes New York City deserving of the title: 'the Capital of the World'. From its early Dutch settlers and to countless immigrants and tourists, New York has been the haven of the peoples of the world seeking their 'American Dreams'.

Where in the world can you see people reading 'Der Spiegel', "New York Times', 'Sing Tao', and a Russian Newspaper at the same time? Only in New York City!
