There are plenty of places to see and things to do, and despite what you may believe, you don't need a lot of money to do it. New York is a good example of this. There a countless attractions in New York at are affordable enough to make them part of your next vacation.
It doesn't cost anything to take a picture of, making a painting of, or just to start at the Statue of Liberty. But if you want to see it the way it's supposed to be seen, you should consider taking the Staten Island Ferry to go see it.
Ground Zero is the place where the World Trade Center once stood. The site of the New World Trade Center is still on going its construction having with it its own memorial, museum and new skyscraper tagged as the Freedom Tower.
Between Fifth Avenue and the Avenue of the Americas lies another historical building of New York and considered one of the leading attractions in New York, the Rockefeller Center. Built in the 1930s, the building houses shops, restaurants and an ice skating rink.
The Wall Street, with the New York Stock Exchange's grand faade is a sight to behold. Visit the federal hall for a quick and free tour of the museum where George Washington was inducted. A walk down the symbol of western capitalism will cost you not a penny.
Don't think that you always have to pay to get into the nice museums. The Metropolitan Museum of Art is free anytime during the week, the Museum of the City of New York is free on Sundays from ten in the morning until 12, and the Museum of Modern Art is free on Fridays from four to eight in the evening.
The 843 acre Central Park offers a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. Enjoy boating on a man-made lake, ice skating, seeing animals at the zoo, and swimming in the heat of summer. For those shoppers out there, stop by stores such as Sak's Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman, or Tiffany and Company to witness a shopper's paradise.
Make a final stop at sites such as the Empire State Building skyscraper or Times Square which is famous for its New Year's Eve festivities. You could take a trip to Long Island if you wish to take in the beauty of the city. That of course would be one of the many free or inexpensive attractions in New York, which are all equally impressive to witness.
