The City of New York, often called New York City or simply New York, is the most populous city in the United States. With an estimated population of 8,537,673 distributed over a land area of about 302.6 square miles (784 km²), New York City is also the most densely populated city in the United States. One of the best things about New York City is the cuisine. New York City's food culture includes an array of international cuisines. For example, Central European and Italian immigrants brought bagels and cheesecakes into the city. Street vendors licensed by the city, many owned by the immigrants, sell pizzas, hotdogs and sandwiches. Fine dining is available, but has a high price. There are many high-quality Michelin restaurants for tourists to choose. The New York City government assigns letter grades to the city's restaurants based upon their inspection results. This city is said to be the home to nearly one thousand of the finest and most diverse cuisine restaurants around the world. In New York City, the greatest attractions are located in Manhattan. No vacation is complete without visiting the Statue of Liberty. The Statue of Liberty is a figure of a robed woman representing Libertas, a Roman liberty goddess. She holds a torch above her head with her right hand, and in her left hand carries a tablet with the date of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. A broken chain lies at her feet. The statue became an icon of freedom and of the United States, and was a welcoming sight to immigrants arriving from abroad. World-famous streets such as Wall Street and Fifth Avenue are in Manhattan. Over time, Wall Street has become a symbol of the financial markets of the United States as a whole, and New York is home to the world's two largest stock exchanges: the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ. Fifth Avenue is one of the world's most expensive streets. There are enough over-the-top shopping opportunities on Fifth Avenue to meet everyone's needs. Some of the most prestigious stores like LV, Prada, Gucci, Microsoft Store, and Apple Store can be found here. New York City has everything. No matter you love sightseeing, shopping or food, New York City will definitely satisfy you!
