In addition to the art, culture and excitement, another reason tourists book flights to New York City each year is the science and technology attractions. At the American Museum of Natural History you’ll find the Hayden Planetarium and one of the world’s largest collections of dinosaur bones. Towering skyscrapers in New York City provide spectacular bird’s-eye views. Visit the iconic Empire State Building and see one of the most well-known cityscapes for yourself. For a view of the Statue of Liberty minus the crowds, take a ferry from Staten Island.
