The Big Apple. The city that never sleeps. New York, New York. It speaks for itself. No other city in the world quite made a name for itself like this one. To think at the start of the 20th century it had only a handful of high-rise buildings; now the New York skyline soars beyond our imagination. While famous landmarks like the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Times Square, Central Park and Radio City to – name a few – bejewel the city like diamonds, the best thing about New York is the possibilities it provides. Whether you want your dreams of becoming rich and famous to become true or simply want a cheesecake delivered to your door at 3:00 a.m., this city will never say no.
