nyc: So my friend and I want to take his cousin from Germany who is visiting to the city for a day. However, we have a lot of places we regularly go to when we are there (restaurants, our friends' places, etc) and we feel like they wouldn't really be anything interesting for a tourist. So what could you suggest as places to take this guy? We were thinking just walk through times square with him, maybe go through spots in central park a bit? What would be interesting to a german tourist in nyc?|||Things to do and see: Rockefeller Center - Christmas Tree a must :) Top of the Rock - view of the city Time Square - walk around and maybe get something to eat Central Park - Horse carriage ride Macy's - 34th street and Broadway South Street Seaport - downtown by wall street. nice to see Broadway show IMAX Theater - you can watch a movie there. Museum of Natural History Wax Museum in Time Square Manhattan mall - for some shopping. Empire State Building Statue of Liberty|||Radio City Music Hall Statue of Liberty Empire State Building Broadway Hit lots of shops Make SURE he tastes NYC pizza if he hasn't Just walk around the City I went to this really cool place called Sony Wonder Technology Lab, but it was a few years ago when I was younger, so you might want to look that one up|||I assume your friend knows what his cousin likes to do, and could come up with better ideas than strangers on here. I'll just give my typical suggestions: Yankee Game (or just take the tour of the stadium if it's not the baseball season) Central Park Grand Central (avoid during morning and evening rush hours) Staten Island Ferry (avoid during morning and evening rush hours) Coney Island|||Heidelberg is an EXCELLENT suggestion! Been going there for years! A baseball game would also be a great idea if he has never been. A ride on the ferry or a few stops to some of the City's well known tourist spots like Times Square, Rockefeller Plaza (check out Top of the Rock while you're there if you can) and end the day with a trip to Heidelberg. Wait....maybe a trip to Wo Hop would be more to his interest! even better idea....... http://churrascariaplataforma.com/ it's a carnivore's heaven on earth!|||How about the Heidelberg Restaurant? Hopefully they visit on a Saturday. On Saturday evenings, they have live music and the finest German beer. http://www.heidelbergrestaurant.com Source(s): http://411newyork.org/forum/ http://411ny.org/e6PLtn
