With an estimated 2020 population of 8,253,213 spread over 302.6 square miles, New York is the most populated city. New York Metropolis is also the country's most heavily populated major city. The city is the heart of the New York metropolitan region, the world's biggest metropolitan area by urban area, and is located near the southern point of New York. New York City, also known as the “Big Apple,” is the world's cultural, financial, and media center and the world's most photographed city.

Even if the city's towering buildings and landmarks do not captivate you, the city's thriving arts, cuisine, fashion, nightlife, and other things to do will. You may spend your morning shopping Fifth Avenue's designer racks and your afternoon admiring the city from the Top of the Rock Observation Deck or the cabin of a helicopter. And if you're an art enthusiast, you may enjoy looking at the incredible masterpieces on exhibit at the Met and the Guggenheim before dining on ethnic cuisine in Chinatown or Little Italy. If you still have some energy and money, don't miss the opportunity to see an award-winning Broadway play or visit one of the low-key rooftop pubs and jazz clubs that light up the Meatpacking District after dusk. In addition, the city warmly welcomes you to its world-class cruise ship ports in Manhattan and Brooklyn. NYCruise is home to the world's most magnificent cruise ships, typically the fastest, largest, and most wealthy. Each terminal is readily accessible from all New York City airports and major highways.
