Keep a little mystery in your trip planning: Explorer Picture Mode shows a stylized version of every place instead of the real photo, so you can go by the description and reviews first and picture it your own way -- reveal the real photo any time by flipping the switch off, or just for one place at a time from its own page.

Things To Do
New York's landmarks span more ground, and more centuries, than most cities manage in one visit: the Statue of Liberty and Empire State Building for the classic skyline views, Central Park for green space in the middle of it all, and world-class collections at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the American Museum of Natural History.
Beyond the museums, Times Square and Grand Central Terminal capture the city's sheer energy, while the 9/11 Memorial and Brooklyn Bridge offer a quieter, more reflective side of the city. See the full list below for everything else worth building an itinerary around.
