NYC, NY 10017

TIMES SQUARE

Also known as Midtown Manhattan, Times Square sits along

Broadway between 42nd and 47th Streets. It’s the gateway to

the Theatre District and the part of New York City that every

one wants to see. It’s fun. It’s exciting. It’s crowded. Cafes,

restaurants, movie theatres, one-of-a-kind shops, and great

stores like Hershey's Chocolate and Disney line its streets.

Times Square—it’s “the” place to be!

TOP OF THE ROCK

*Admission Included*

Open 365 days a year, Rockefeller Center's newly renovated

Top of the Rock™ will win you over with its Art Deco look,

Swarovsky Crystal sculpture and chandelier. Begin with fun,

interactive exhibits on the mezzanine level, then ascend to the

open-air Observation Deck. 70 stories above Manhattan can

be very peaceful, especially when you view 360 degrees

through crystal-clear, transparent safety glass panels. See the

Statue of Liberty, New Jersey, the Bronx and Brooklyn and

wonderful Central Park. Timed entry serves as crowd control,

and the shop sells neat souvenirs of your visit.

Wednesday, November 21 CENTRAL PARK/XMAS SPECTACULAR

CENTRAL PARK FREE TIME

Planned in the 1850's by design competition winners Frederick

Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, this 843-acre naturalistic

urban park features a zoo, a theater, sports facilities, lakes

and entertainment. Among its many memorials is Strawberry

Fields, the pastoral tribute to the late musician, John Lennon,

who lived only steps away at the Dakota Apartment Building.

**OPTIONAL AT OWN EXPENSE**

*MET MUSEUM OF ART

Established since 1870, this iconic museum houses more than

two million works of art from all over the world, ancient

through modern times.

*CENTRAL PARK ZOO

The zoo has always held a special spot in the hearts of New

Yorkers who have come to adopt the animals as prized

members of the metropolitan community. The early

menagerie was home to “Murphy” the hippo and “Mike

Crowley,” the first chimpanzee ever shown in the United

States. In fact, when Mr. Crowley took ill, get well cards

poured in from fans all over the city.

*MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY

The American Museum of Natural History is one of the most

famous attractions in New York City, and its architecture alone

makes the museum stand out. Spread out over several city

blocks, it's big enough to contain one of the world's most

important dinosaur collections. Add a 94-foot blue whale, a

recreation of an African rain forest and the Hall of Mammals,

and you've only scratched the surface of the millions of

artifacts and specimens at the world's largest and most

important museum of natural history.

FIFTH AVENUE

Enjoy a stroll down this magnificent avenue! Begin at the

southeast corner of Central Park and make your way past the

famous Plaza Hotel, Apple, Tiffany’s, Trump Tower, and Sak’s

Fifth Avenue.

ROCKEFELLER CENTER

A “City Within a City!” - Over twelve skyscrapers connected by

miles of underground passages, make up Rockefeller Center,

home to the G.E. Building, Radio City Music Hall, NBC Studios

and the famous ice rink.

RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL

The Hall opened on December 27, 1932, with a lavish variety

show and continued to feature films and stage productions

until 1979. At this point plans were made to convert the

theater into office space, but a combination of preservation

and commercial interests resulted in the protection of Radio

City Music Hall and in 1980, after a renovation, it reopened to

the public. The interiors of Radio City Music Hall were

designated a New York City Interior Landmark on March 28,

1978, and its exterior was designated a New York City

Landmark as part of Rockefeller Center on April 23, 1985.

One of the largest churches in the nation, this historic

SUBWAY TO FINANCIAL DISTRICT

*Included*

Enjoy an 8-trip subway pass to be shared by two travelers.

9/11 MEMORIAL & MUSEUM

Occupying 8 of 16 acres at New York’s World Trade Center,

the street-level Memorial honors the lives of those lost in the

September 11, 2001 attacks. With the names of all who

perished inscribed in bronze on its twin memorial pools, and

the inspiring Survivor Tree still growing, the Memorial fulfills

its mission of remembrance.

MUSEUM RESERVATION

*Admission Included*

Located on New York’s World Trade Center site, The National

September 11 Memorial Museum explores the implications and

continuing significance of the events of 9/11. From the

glassed-in Entry Pavilion, the Twin Tower tridents point the

visitor down to the original foundation level and three main

exhibitions: Historical, Memorial and Foundation Hall.

Personal effects, photographs, first responder vehicles, and

more than 1,970 oral histories are some of the things that

teach about the World Trade Center attacks of September 11,

2001 and February 26, 1993, which together took nearly

3,000 lives.

SELF-WALKING TOUR

After your museum visit, enjoy some or all of the following

lower-Manhattan sites with your chaperone group. Applicable

entrance fees are at your expense.

*TRINITY CHURCH

The historic Trinity Church on Wall Street in New York City

features neo-Gothic flying buttresses, beautiful stained-glass

windows, and vaulted ceilings. It withstood 9/11 with little

damage and has played an important role in remembrance of

the event. During the Revolutionary War, the church's clergy

were Loyalists, while the parishioners included members of the

first and second Continental Congresses.

*WALL STREET

Wall Street is not only a street name: it is the personification

of the entire US financial system. The street is in Lower

Manhattan in the Financial District. Wall Street is home to The

New York Stock Exchange. The Federal Reserve Bank is

located next to Wall Street, and the head offices of the world’s

largest banks and other financial institutions are here.

Wall Street became the site of the inauguration of the first US

President, George Washington, in 1789. The Bill of Rights was

also adopted here.

*BROOKLYN BRIDGE

The Brooklyn Bridge was one of the great engineering marvels

of the 19th Century. Completed in 1883, it connects the New

York City boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn over the East

River. The very first steel-wire suspension bridge (with a main

span of 1,595.5 feet (486.3 m)), it was the longest suspension

bridge in the world until 1903. At a cost of $15.5 million and

at least 27 lives, it's no wonder that it has remained a

captivating attraction for locals and tourists alike.

*CHINATOWN/LITTLE ITALY

For more than a century, Chinatown has shared a border with

Little Italy but the border keeps expanding in China’s favor!

Enjoy the hustle and bustle and strange dialect of this colorful

area. For unique souvenirs, check out the shops on Mott,

Bayard and Mulberry Streets.

*THE HIGH LINE

The High Line is a public park built on a historic freight rail line

elevated above the streets on Manhattan’s West Side. It runs

from Gansevoort Street in the Meatpacking District to West

34th Street, between 10th and 12th Avenues.

*SOHO

Spend some time exploring one of the best shopping areas in

New York City. This former artist community of the 70’s has

been transformed into an exciting, trendy neighborhood. Its

loft apartments now sell in the millions!

FROZEN

*Included*

A NEW MUSICAL from Disney Theatrical.

Winter is nearly over for "Frozen" fans shivering in anticipation

2013 film is the highest-grossing animated feature in history,

earning close to $1.3 billion worldwide, according to The

Hollywood Reporter.
