Welcome to New York
You've found yourself in New York City. Well, at least as close as you can get without actually being there. New York is the center of the universe for thousands of people, corporations, groups and organizations.
• a Yellow Taxicab
You'll never see everything, and its impossible to hop the whole island and see it all. One of New York's chief attractions is the overwhelming number of places to visit. Every night on the town doesn't have to include dinner at a four-star restaurant and a Broadway show to be memorable, and you don't have to spend your days splurging in the expensive shops on Fifth Avenue. Some of New York's greatest splendors are so simple, and so inexpensive; you'll be surprised. Just sit on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and watch the world go by; take a walk through Central Park on a clear day and gaze at the city as it passes by you; or when you feel crazy wander the streets of Greenwich Village, exploring the crazy stores it offers.
Everything! New York guarantees, that once you visit the city and indulge yourself in its offerings and ignore the stereotypes, you'll be waving good-bye to the Statue of Liberty from the window of your departing plane, wistling "New York, New York..."

The combination of history and great sites make this one of the best places to begin sightseeing in New York.
The culture of Lower Manhattan is purely diverse, and residens here are more scarce here than any other neighborhood, holding only about 4-5% of Manhattan's population Primarily due to the large ammount of commerce and industry in this area of the city.
Soho and Tribeca are filled with trendy shops, chic restaurants and art galleries. Unique to the area, cast-iron buildings house dramatic loft spaces which have become some of Manhattan's most expensive pieces of real estate. Further east, Chinatown, Little Italy, and the Lower East Side are ethnic enclaves known for their authentic eateries and markets.
The culture of Soho and Tribeca is mostly artistic, young, and career-oriented- working hard in their costly loft spaces. To the east in Chinatown and such, the population is almost entirely ethnic depending on the area, Chinese and Orient in Chinatown, Italian-Americans and other Europeans in Little Italy, and other nationalitys are represented in this area. The area represents about 10-15% of the islands population.
Buzzing with activity, "the village" is divided into the West and East Village, both filled with popular shops, bars, and restaurants. In the West Village, Christopher Street is the center of New York's gay community. The East Village is the nucleus of the city's bohemian life. Its main street, St. Mark's Place, is crowded with funky boutiques and inexpensive restaurants.
West Chelsea has recently become a center of art, as many new galleries have opened in its warehouse-sized buildings. There is also a thriving dining and nightlife scene. The heart of the Flatiron district revolves around the sophisticated bars and restaurants along Park Avenue South. Dont miss a trip to the top of one of the world's most famous skyscrapers - the Empire State Building.
The culure of this area is diverse and very different. Chelsea caters to the artistic and social type, and most of its residents are up and coming New Yorkers. Grammery and Flatiron tend to hold more sophisticated, older residents who commute to their Midtown highrise offices. It is also the home to many fasion and clothing guru's, such as designers, clotheirs, and models.
Midtown West is best known of its Broadway theaters. Centered around this hub of activity are many of the city's major hotels. You will also find the majority of Manhattan's theme restaurants and top attractions like Times Square and Rockefeller Center. For museum-goers, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMa) is a must-see, Fifth Avenue, the dividing line between Midtown West and East, is a shoppers paradise.

In Harlem, and northern Manhattan, the area is more cultural than the Upper's. Their residents are very ethnic, and pretty much do not rely on much of the restof the long island to the south. Most of its inhabitants are African-American or Hispanic.
The Upper East Side is Manhattan's most exclusive residential area. Elegant townhouses and luxury apartment buildings fill the blocks near Central Park. On Fifth Avenue's Museum Mile, you can find some of the world's finest museums, including "the MET" and the Guggenheim.
