What to do in 3+1/2 Days in New York City?


Hi all!

I am goin to NY for 5 days in march and I will be there half friday + 3 full days (sat-mon), leaving on 5th day morning.

I wondered if someone local could help me plan these 3 full days :), so I visit attractions in the right order without loosing too much time on travel.

I will be staying in 2nd Ave Lower East Side area and plan to get New York Pass (www.newyorkpass.com). I don't want it to be too stressfull, but I don't mind walking and few cabs.

1) I know I want to take ferry to and back Staten Island (to see The Statue of Liberty on the way).

2) Brooklyn Bridge

3) Empire State Building

4) American Museum of Natural History

6) Times Square

7) Monday evening I'm goin to watch NY Knicks at Madison Square Garden :)

I don't know if I can squeeze anything else (or all this!), suggestions are welcome, prefferably with rough time plan :)

Much appreciated in advance! :)

THANK YOU!

PLEASE NOTE, I MAINLY WANT A LIST WITH ORDER I SHOULD VISIT PLACES FROM WHERE I WILL BE STAYING TO SAVE ON TIME!

THANK YOU :)

There are plenty of places to see in New York City

-Rockefeller Center and the Top of the Rock Observation Deck
-Broadway Show
-Lower Manhattan/Wall Street Area
-Central Park
-Grand Central Terminal (largest railroad terminal in the country)
-Sightseeing tour on a Double Decker Bus

Museums
-MoMa
-New Museum of Contemporary Art
-Madame Tussaud Wax Museum
-Brooklyn Museum

Now, in regard to the Knicks game. My friend, as a native New Yorker and Knicks fan, I would suggest not to go to the Knicks game, the team is playing poorly. The only thing you will be hearing from the fans will be the chant to fire the coach, Isiah Thomas. "Fire Isiah." So my advice don't, and repeat don't, waste your money on Knicks tickets. Watch a play in Broadway instead.

I hope this information is very helpful. Good luck and happy travels.

You will have a good time in NYC, that's for sure. There are so much things you can do and still be thirsty for more, lol. I suggest you to go to the Rockefeller Center. It is really cool and fun to be in there, you would enjoy the shops, ice skating rink, museums, and the city itself. I also would suggest you to visit Time Square, and Broadway Theater. There are awesome areas and places in New York City. You will love it! Enjoy!
