1. Catch a Broadway Show. You can go to the Website Todays Tix or check out the TKTS Ticket Stand Booth at Time Square for reduced-priced and list-minute deals on Broadway Shows.

2. Get Cheesecake and a filling lunch at Juniors: (Side-trip alert/ you can always do a side trip to their retail outlet in Burlington NJ to also get cheesecake to take home.)

3. Drop by Drama Bookstore for a cop of coffee and pick up your favorite play to take home.

4. If the weather is nice, take a stroll on the NYC High Line. You can see great public art, pretty flowers, and people watch on the way.

5. Go the Metropolitan Museum of Art . This museum has one of the greatest and most extensive pieces of art that you'll see on the East Coast. (Another pro-tip, go to Central Park and take a stroll after your visit to the Met.)

6. Grab a hotdog and a tropical drink at Papaya King Trust me, you'll thank us later with this NYC Tradition since 1932

7. Go to the Strand and get lost in the stacks. You'll find new and used books here, hard-to-find-treasures, and fun gifts for yourself and friends. They also do a fun book subscription box as well.

8. Grab a slice of Pizza at Famous Original Ray's Pizza. They have a fantastic slice of pizza for the price. They have been a NYC Tradition for over 50 years!

9. Go to the Immigration Museum NYC and take a tour of a tenement house. You'll learn how folks used to live and the history behind the families in the homes.

10. Visit the Morgan Library & Museum. You'll be amazed by antique book collection and the ornate rooms.
