lol times square. I wouldn t spend more than an hour there. The whole place is a tourist trap and used to be full of hookers and adult video stores back in the joint. I would reccomend some other places around Manhattan but the whole place is becoming so gentrified all the lovely neighborhoods are dissapearing. I would reccomend Chinatown. A good place to get the BEST chinese food in NYC is Hop Kee. GO TO THAT PLACE!!!! I would also visit central park and all that jazz...
We just got back from NYC about 3 months ago and I m definitely going back! We were there for 3 days, but I think 5 days should be enough. Get the 3+ day NewYorkPass, it will save you a lot of money! http://www.newyorkpass.com/ -- check Time Sqaure area for a list of places. Also, buy your NYC T-shirt ( 5 for 10.99) at Times SQ.Around Empire State building, they have a lot of cheap NYc sounviers. Hotel wise, book early. We stayed in Chinatown (Hotel 91) but it s clean and fairly cheap- though you can heard the subway at night, it didn;t bother us. Becareful of big and cheap hotel, I heard it s not clean,, The last thing you want is to bring home some bed bugs.Broadway Show: If Wicked was too expensive ( it was for us), so we went to see Fuerza Bruta , we got a coupon online and pay half price =) so check online! .. Let put it this way, we will never forget this show.. we had a blast!http://www.broadwaybox.com/ ? for cheap shows! Ps. We finally watched Wicked�� In San Francisco, it was great!
