It stretches for miles covering so many streets and displaying famous buildings along the way. The stop is part of our tour itinerary.
You will find St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the Museum of the City of New York, the MET, and numerous other historic buildings. 5th Avenue is bordered by Central Park between 82nd and 104th Streets. This stretch is called the Museum Mile – a home of nine museums.
Central Park
Sprawling for 843 acres, with lush green trees and plants, one finds it hard to believe that it was once a terrain containing sheds from the colonists, pig farms, and swamps.
The idea by Frederic Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux was of a park that should be English-styled with huge meadows and lakes and so many trees that the view of the city’s buildings is obstructed.
Central Park boasts numerous lakes, ice rinks, theatres, fountains, baseball fields, tennis courts, and other facilities. It is a not-to-be-missed while sightseeing. It is also home to Central Park Zoo and the famous Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Times Square
Visitors to New York City simply cannot afford to miss this area pulsating with human energy. Times Square is a bustling magnet for visitors who have come for some city sightseeing.
Formerly known as Longacre Square, it was renamed in 1904 after the moving of the New York Times newspaper headquarters to the Times Building. With a spectacle of billboards, arts, Broadway, shops, and restaurants, Times Squares is also a center of various entertainment venues, which makes it a popular destination for tourists.
