Overview to visit New York at its best

Manhattan where are some of the most important and attractive sights of the city: Tiffany and the Plaza Hotel are here! Many are the department stores and shops all around!
St. Patrick’s Cathedral built in 1879, whose gothic style contrasts with the skyscraper surrounding it!
The Rockefeller Centre in Rockefeller Plaza, where the statue of Prometheus stands!
Southern Manhattan are Wall Street and the Stock Exchange accessibile during trading hours;
A ferry from Battery Park takes tourists to the Statue of Liberty inaugurated in 1886.
Wall Street and the Financial District, no doubt the most historic area where to admire the astonishing skyscrapers and thebold fashioned cobbles.
People may enjoy their free time at Battery Park which offers rollerblading facilities as well as a superb panorama!
Harlem, temple of African culture in America, home of wonderful jazz, extraordinary food, past tradition, thanks to its own fast growing economy is world famous!
Greenwich Villange an area characterized by contraddictions unique in themselves!
Soho & Tribeca, now a very successful, vibrant area with very modern bars, delicious restaurants, trendy shops and boutiques;
Chinatown, of course the greatest Chinatown throughout the States, is in one of the most antique and traditional areas of Manhattan!
Chelsea, extremely expensive and rich, populated by different ethnic groups, is also famous for its night life at Cheetah!
Also interesting are Upper East Side and Upper West Side because of the many nice shops as well as yesterday and today architectures, whether neo-gothic or victorian!
Brooklyn with its wordly known bridge and the Bronx, though full of social contraddictions, are districts to get in touch with!
Anyhow, something cannot be failed when in New York: Niagara Falls, an always tempting excursion!
