14 days in New York City Itinerary

Writer Pearl Buck once called New York City “a place apart,” and this giant urban center remains unlike any other in the world.

Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at Woodbury Common Premium Outlets and SoHo. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Independence National Historical Park and St. Patrick's Cathedral. Change things up with these side-trips from New York City: Quogue Wildlife Refuge (in Quogue), Cortwood Landing County Park (in Miller Place) and Hyde Park (Home of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site, &more). There's much more to do: examine the collection at Ground Zero Museum Workshop, take a stroll through Greenwich Village, take in the spiritual surroundings of The Met Cloisters, and admire the masterpieces at Magazzino Italian Art.
