Don't keep looking up when strolling around Manhattan, or they'll
know you're a tourist. Sightseeing is a part of the New York experience and the greatest
sensation is on the streets.
Walking around you'll get to feel New York in your veins. Stay long
enough in Upper Manhattan and you'll find yourself nipping out to the salad bar at two in
the morning and think nothing of it that everything's still fresh.
No other city has such a diversity of people and cultures as New
York City.
Within the boundaries of its five boroughs lies a microcosm of the
whole world. Visitors can move along the bustling sidewalks of Chinatown, visit the Greek
tavernas of Astoria, the Old World Russian restaurants and clubs of Brighton Beach, the
Italian communities of Little Italy and Arthur Avenue, the sari shops of Little India in
Jackson Heights, and so much more.
