New York, one of the world's most dynamic cities, exudes energy and diversity. The city comprises five boroughs, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island; many of New York’s most prominent attractions are in Manhattan, including the iconic Empire State Building. Another well-known Manhattan highlight is bustling Times Square. Some of the city’s other notable attractions are Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art, while neighborhoods such as Greenwich Village, SoHo and Chinatown have their own distinctive characters, as does Fifth Avenue, also known as "the most expensive street in the world”. From luxury boutiques to world-class museums and galleries, and from internationally renowned restaurants to street food, New York offers visitors an almost infinite variety of experiences.
