New York City has appeared in loads of songs and it has served as the backdrop for countless movies, inspiring people worldwide with its grandiosity.

Brimming with historic landmarks and some of the tallest buildings in the US, it has been a leader in trade and culture for centuries, redefining everything from fashion trends to what a proper bagel with schmear should taste like in the process.

The metro area is a land of opportunity, which is why – despite the crowds and costs – people keep coming to it.

Some of the world's best theaters, restaurants, museums, parks, and cultural activities can be found here.

From Greenwich Village in downtown to Harlem in uptown, New York City's communities are as diverse as its people.

Beyond Manhattan, the city is comprised of four additional boroughs: Queens, which has a long history of fabulous immigrant food; Brooklyn and its thriving literary and arts scene; the Bronx and its abundant green space and wildlife; and Staten Island, famous for its coastline.

Washington Irving nicknamed Manhattan "Gotham" in 1807. The name stuck . It's a reference to a medieval English folk tale. I also heard Batman creator found Gotham Jewellers in the NYC phone book.

This reminds me of only vacation in NY in 2009. My husband and I had just got a cup of coffee in times square before heading back to hotel. It's abot 9PM, we had walked all day with umbrella. All of the sudden it started to rain and EVERYONE got up from their tables and went under awnings. I opened the umbrella, and for 5 minutes we were the only ones sitting in times square on a summer Saturday night.

I remember one brief fierce rain storm, caught everyone by surprise. Everyone ducked under awnings and into the entryways of buildings. All the different people. The great equalizer.

I lived in NY for years. The city will wear on you. It doesn’t care much about you in general, but you find the beauty. Simple things mean so much more. When people bitchh about the most trivial things I think about NY. You get a real perspective on the important things when you have to find the beauty many times.

New York City is also known for its fast-paced, around-the-clock lifestyle, which may be overwhelming for newcomers. Dubbed "the city that never sleeps," this relentless metropolis draws people seeking to advance their careers and push their potential to its absolute limits. The saying goes that "if you can make it here, you can make it anywhere."

However, New York City houses people from all walks of life. More than one-third of New Yorkers are foreign-born, making the metro area a genuine melting pot of cultures. Moreover, NYC is home to the largest Jewish population outside of Israel and one of the largest Puerto Rican populations in the continental US. New York City is also home to a flourishing LGBTQ community; the annual Pride celebration welcomes a few million attendees each year.
