The New York City really has the wonders of the Big Apple that exceeds all expectations -- the fantastic skyscrapers, marvelous museums, cultural centers, architecture and sightseeing attractions, among which the following are most worth seeing. The Statue of Liberty stands magnificently on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. It is a national monument which was presented by France on October 28, 1886 to remember the American Revolution. Wall Street was built by the Dutch to protect the colony from Indian attack. Now it is America's financial center. Broadway is an avenue in Manhattan, a symbol of the New York theatre. At night it is brilliantly lit by spectacular lighted signs which have given it the name "The Great White Way".
