2. Empire State Building - After the destruction of the World Trade Center, the building again became the highest point in New York. The view from two observatories (one in the floor and another 86 in 102)-with areas partially outdoors-is a must.
3. New York Public Library - It has nothing to do with terrorist attacks, but the stairs and statues of lions at the entrance are great. You pass by the front of the library and just remember a lot of films that used the site as a lease. The visit to the library also allows the tourist to feel a real New Yorker. Just buy a snack and sit on the steps or in a bank to make the park a "snack". For the serious side, the ride is worth the neoclassical architecture and the ability to search the huge collection of books.
4. St. Patrick's Cathedral - The New Yorkers were more attached to religious faith after the terrorist attacks. In addition to cheap-it costs nothing into the church, the traveler will have the chance to know the largest Catholic cathedral in the United States. It is impossible not to thrill to attend a Mass of St. Patrick. The Gregorian choir is creepy. As the cathedral is very large, the visitor may be required to attend a Mass for one of the TV equipment installed by the cathedral. Even so, it is worth!
5. Grand Central Terminal - Pass by the Grand Central Station shows that the Americans are capable. Built between 1903 and 1913, the station has a roof designed with symbols of the zodiac. The marble staircases reminiscent of the golden period of travel by train.
6. Brooklyn Bridge - the bridge is possible to have a vision of where the towers stood before the World Trade Center. Some tourists take pictures risk with the lack of towers in the background. The walk is worth the wonderful view and the hand history: the Brooklyn Bridge, built in 1883, was the largest suspension bridge in the world and the first steel.
7. Statue of Liberty - As cliche as it may be, who is visiting New York needs the Statue of Liberty to feel he was in town. In addition to know the symbol of New York, visitors will have a privileged view of where the towers should be the World Trade Center. In rafts, many tourists use to click on the empty buildings.
8. Rockefeller Center - the complex of 20 buildings is regarded as the heart of Manhattan. In winter you can skate in ice skating-rink.
9. Chinatown - Chinese Traditional neighborhood near Little Italy and Soho is the ideal place to buy souvenirs of New York. The little shops, which resemble the trade in much of the street on March 25 (the central region of São Paulo), selling miniatures of the twin towers, postcards of the World Trade Center, shirts "I love NY" and a multitude of ironmongery. The local traders also sell a variety of counterfeit products at prices inviting. In any case, the tourists have to haggle to get a good discount.
10. Broadway - On a money, the tourist has to attend one of the pieces performed the entire year on Broadway. The most traditional are Les Miserables, The Beauty and the Beast, The Phantom of the Opera, 42nd Street and King Leon In the weeks after the terrorist attacks, asked the public actors in cash donations for victims of the World Trade Center. At the time of purchasing the ticket, the best options are the counters of the central theaters or for sale of tickets to Broadway, in Tkts, located in Times Square.
11. Times Square - The most famous corner in New York is crowded with references to the terrorist attacks, such as flags and souvenirs of the World Trade Center. It is a great destination for those seeking a single place Megastore, theaters, cinemas and bright mirabolantes.
12. Macy'sx Conway - After so many references to the terrorist attacks, the tourist has the right to make good buying in New York. Even for those who will not buy anything, a visit to Macy's is a must. Called "the largest store in the world", sells a little of everything, in various price ranges. A good tip is to purchase Conway, located a block from Macy's. Frequented mainly by consumers of Latin origin, the shop offers a mix of products with prices lower than the camels. Curiosity: many sellers in the shop do not speak English, only Spanish.

The stores sell these miniatures of the twin towers of the World Trade Center and objects that recall the tragedy as shirts with the phrase "We remember World Trade Center".
The traditional shirt with the phrase "I love NY" has changed after the attacks. Now the souvenirs won the "I love NY more than ever."
For $ 7, you can buy a roll of toilet paper with the face of Osama bin Laden in the shops of Chinatown.
