8 days in New York City Itinerary

Writer Pearl Buck once called New York City “a place apart,” and this giant urban center remains unlike any other in the world.

Get out of town with these interesting New York City side-trips: Philadelphia (Franklin Square & Kelly Drive), Coney Island (in Brooklyn) and Bronx Zoo (in Bronx). There's lots more to do: take in the pleasant sights at Central Park, pause for some photo ops at Statue of Liberty National Monument, admire the striking features of Grand Central Terminal, and admire the natural beauty at Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
