I love NYC! Here are some ideas of what you can do while in NYC. First, get a good tour map. Then I recommend you take the BIG APPLE double decker tour bus for an overview of the city. There are several different neighborhoods so I'll highlight these and what to see:
Upper East Side: Metropolitan Museum of Art, Guggenheim, Whitney Museum. Walk up and down Madison Avenue for awesome shops and boutiques 96th - 57th st. Walk Park Avenue for architecture all the way to Grand Central Terminal and see the treasures located within. Walk along 5th Avenue to see/go in and out of Central Park - go for a run, go to the Central Park Zoo, go to the Carousel, go for a gondola ride at the boat house.
UPPER WEST SIDE:
Museum of Natural History -a must! on Central Park West,
Walk along Columbus Avenue. Visit the West side of Central Park and pay respects to John Lennon's Strawberry Fields.
MIDTOWN:
Shopping - 57th St (Chanel and the gang), Fifth Avenue - must see Henri Bendel, Bergdorf Goodman, Saks and FAO Schwartz - many other fun stores.
St. Patrick's Cathedral
Museum of Modern Art
Sony Bldg
Rockefeller Center
Go west to awesome new Time Warner center and visit the new Mandarin Hotel bar/restaurant for awesome view and treats!
Oh, Bloomingdale's is on 59th St and Lexington.
Empire State Bldg.
The Intrepid Aircraft Museum is fascinating and on the West side...worth the visit even if you have no kids.

CHELSEA:
Walk around the blooming area sprouting awesome restaurants and shops. Chelsea Pier is fun.

WALL ST:
Pay respects to the 9/11 victims and heroes at the WTC site., Walk Wall St., visit the Chase Hdqtrs, Federal Reserve. Seaport area is great to see.

THE VILLAGE:
Funky shops in the West Village. Walk through the NYU Washington Square Park. The East Village has some shops from new artists and designers

SOHO:
Great galleries and shops on n off West Broadway. Walk thru to Little Italy for awesome meals and desserts...walk through Chinatown. CANAL STREET has stall after stall of Designer "copies"...bring cash and bargain and watch your purse!

These should put an awesome smile on your face. Bring your camera and takes lots of photos to remember your trip. You'll have a blast! OH...BUY this weekly magazine: TIMEOUT NEW YORK on any newstand to see what's going on each week/day. :)

It has a lot of trash 5. a lot of retailers could be run down 6. you may continually hear automobiles' horns blaring 7. all people is there 8. NYC is only too worry-loose 9. all people likes it 10. la is greater advantageous! Now listed under are the excuses why NYC is super: a million. There are shops 2. The issues in shops are severe-high quality And that ends my concept. thank you for it sluggish. i'm going to speak to you later.

Because Frank Sinatra sang that great song, "New York, New York":

Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it, New York, New York
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
And make a brand new start of it
New York, New York

I want to wake up in the city that never sleeps
To find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap
These little town blues
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New York
If I can make it there
I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York, New York.

It is way better than LA that if for sure. It has better culture and better people. I like it much better than LA. I hate LA with a passion. I love to visit NY. Going to LA is like a punishment. Going to NY is a special treat filled with opportunity and special treats. LA is angry and hateful. People are always unhappy about what they do not have and about their bodies. It is so platic. People in NY are more creative. I have not been to other parts of CA. I hope to see the more creative side of CA that I know exists. The less agressive angry side of CA. The side that celebrates life more. All I have seen of LA is horrible and the people I go with hate it too. It is like pulling our teeth. I have to go to LA on international flights, but I am going to pay the extra $200.00 and go through NY next time because people say it is easier and more friendly. Even the air port makes me cringe. People are so rude there. I really want to go back to see NY. I have been 4 times, but not since 9/11. I have seen it in many different ways. Twise I stayed with people and 2x I went purely as a tourist. Of course knowing people is best.

Not that I am New York's biggest fan, but you can always find something to do!
They have awesome museums, concerts, clubs, sights.
Their subway - while not the cleanest - is very convenient for getting around.
Some of the best restaurants ever are in NYC.

It's a great town to live in once you get used to the smell.
