The Big Apple does not need an intro. It is everything you ever thought it could be and a whole lot more. When you walk between the high skyscrapers you feel small, and let's face it: you are. New York City is like a small universe. You will find every type of person on earth represented not only in the UN buildings but also on the street and in different parts of town. Among the main interests of New York City are the many museums, the architecture and the endless shopping possibilities, especially along Madison Avenue. For many people, New York City is overwhelming.

Greenwich Village:

If the winding streets of this historic neighborhood could talk, they would speak of poverty and prosperity, free love and socialism, gay rights and reform. 

Chinatown:

Chinatown New York City, the largest Chinatown in the United States, is located in one of the oldest neighborhoods in Manhattan. Founded in the late 1870's by Chinese immigrants, Chinatown offers a unique historical and cultural experience not found anywhere else in the world. Recently, some non-Asian hotspots have opened and created quite a stir.

Chelsea:

Known for its many nightspots and art galleries, club goers party at Cheetah, Twilo and Rebar.

Upper West Side:

Solid (often neo gothic or Victorian) architecture. Yuppies, successful artists and apartment-sharing twenty somethings flocked here. Today, the buildings along Central Park West house some of the city's most notoriously picky co-op boards (Jerry Seinfeld, approved; Madonna, denied).  Also, adding much color is the world's premiere Jewish Orthodox singles scene.  One cannot venture north of 90th Street on Amsterdam or Columbus Avenues without noticing.

The Bronx:

Home to the Yankees, the Bronx offers much to visitors and citizens alike.
