This site is about New York City. I am a traveler and New York City has to be the most lively places on earth. There are lots of world class entertainment ,venues and different ethic dishes that you can find to sample in NYC. You can be be a part of the city due to NYC efficient public transportation and all you need is a cheap Metro Card to bring you to the action. Being a resident of NYC for more than 20 years there is no place like New York. In the past there is a saying "all roads lead to Rome", the modern saying is "all roads leads to New York City"
