New York City Things to Do Tips by nicolettart

Addicted to Art Metropolitan Museum of Art Review

You can return here dozens of times, as I have, and still not see the whole place!! I never tire of coming here, and I have my favorite spots, like the quiet Chinese courtyard, and the Greek galleries. This is really one of the greatest museums in the world and not to be missed!

The museum has late hours on Fridays and Saturdays--open till 9:00pm.

Address: 1000 Fifth Avenue at 82nd Street

Directions: Take 4, 5, or 6 train to 86th Street and walk three blocks west to Fifth Avenue

Broadway Shows Shows Review

Even if shows aren't your thing, it's really a part of the NY experience. Try to catch a show when here, you can get last minute tickets at the TKTS booth, or get them in advance. It's worth it!

Everyone Says it's a Must-See... Empire State Building Review

...so it must be!! Well, how can you miss it when in NYC? Even if you don't go to the top (and you should, really!), the Empire State Building is quite impressive. I like going to NY as if I'm a real tourist (haha I live right next door in NJ), so in this picture I am posing with the building in the background, even though I have been here a hundred times!

Address: 350 5th Avenue

Directions: 1, 2, 3 or 9 (Seventh Avenue Lines), A, C or E (Eighth Avenue Subway) to 34th Street/Penn Station.
