New York City has many nicknames: Capital of the World, Big Apple, City That Never Sleeps, etc. All of them describe only small aspects of probably the most interesting city in the world. Exactly for this reason, more than 45 million tourists visited New York in 2009, and this figure is expected to increase by an additional 2 million in 2010.

New York City's five boroughs are home to some of the most recognizable and cherished landmarks and attractions in the world. Visitors marvel at the stunning icons they've come to know through TV and the movies, while locals revel in the historic sites that define the place they call home. From the Statue of Liberty to Broadway, from Central Park to the Brooklyn Bridge, New York City exudes visual magic.
