There are a small number of places in the world that are truly world-class, and New York is one of them because of sights like the Statue of Liberty and Empire State Building. You'll also find Ellis Island and Brooklyn Bridge while you're at it!
The Madame Tussauds Wax Museum and the Brooklyn Children's Museum are great places to enjoy some quality time with the children. The Children's Museum of Manhattan and the Children's Museum of the Arts are also well worth checking out if you want to keep the good times coming.
New York Aquarium is an aquatic haven for all members of the family.
Your family will be impressed by the wide array of animal species holding court at the Bronx Zoo and the Prospect Park Zoo. The residents at the Queens Zoo and the Staten Island Zoo will also provide you with plenty of photo opportunities, so don't be without your camera.
There's a good chance you've already spent some time tasting the various beers here, so why don't you head over to the Brooklyn Brewery and see how it's made? If you're lucky, there might be a few samples lying around!
For a real taste of this region, visit the City Winery. Take a stroll through the vineyards and learn how sommeliers recognize quality drops. If you find something you particularly love, arrange to have a case shipped back home.
Feeling lucky? Take on the blackjack dealer or just enjoy the high-stakes atmosphere at the Resorts World Casino.
Local and exotic vines and creepers, leafy trees and long, winding footpaths await you at the Queens Botanical Garden and the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. Many tourists also enjoy strolling around the New York Botanical Gardens and the Conservatory Garden.

Lakes offer a range of activities for visitors of all ages. From scenic walks to bird-watching, there's always some good times to be had.

Lock your phone in the car and have a rest from the modern world at Governors Island and Brower Park. Greenbelt Nature Center and Mount Loretto Unique Area are also recommended by nature enthusiasts.
See the world from a different perspective by spending some time at one of the area's fascinating cultural institutions. The Museum of Modern Art and the Solomon R.

Our world is a weird, wonderful place.

Want to see some art? You'll discover galleries of all kinds here. Start your explorations of this creative paradise by stopping in at the New Museum and the Met Cloisters.
