Nat. His. is so much fun to explore. Right now they are doing a live butterfly exhibit with over 400 different species, as well as an aquatic exhibit with presentations daily. This is one of those museums that you keep going back to because it's constantly changing. Always offering new exhibits. …

My favorite place to hang out in all of NYC is Greenwich Village. It is filled with cute restaurants. My favorites are the Grey Dog, a cute café with a fantastic menu at University and 12th, and Peanut Butter & Co., a sandwich shop devoted to George Washington Carver's greatest invention. If you…

I went here on February 26, 2009. I forgot my student ID and had to pay regular adult admission ($20) instead of the student rate ($12). I enjoyed seeing the artwork and observing the reactions of the other attendees' reaction to the art.

Helicopter rides are cool. They are cool anywhere in the world, but probably the coolest place of all would be New York. The Manhattan skyline is impressive enough from the ground, but seeing it from the air just adds a whole new dimension to the majesty of the tall buildings.

More intimate than Madison Square Garden, Terminal 5 is located not too far off from Times Square.
The concert hall is not too large, and has two floors of balconies for VIP ticket holders, and a standing room area that accommodates maybe 100 people, so not too huge.
The acoustics are good. …

Grand Central Terminal was built as the main terminal of the New York Central Railroad. Construction of the vast urban station required 10 years between 1903 and 1913. (As it was built it replaced the earlier 1880s Grand Central Station.)
Everything about the Grand Central is on a grand scale. Th…

It was a rainy day in New York and we didn't want to see another art gallery or museum so we went for the Intrepid Sea Air Space Museum.
Its located on the 86 pier, quite a walk if you go there via subway. Its about a 30 minutes walk from the 42th station (Time Square). Or about 5-6 USD from the …

The Central Park Zoo is located at 64th Street and Fifth Avenue and is open 365 days a year. Alright! The prices are pretty decent for New York standards; all the ticket prices are under $10 and if you are 3 and under you get in for free!
No, it isn’t the San Diego Zoo or even the Bronx Zoo, …
