New York

Whether or not train travel is in your plans, Grand Central Terminal (formerly Grand Central Station) deserves to be one of your destinations. Since the building's revitalization 10 years ago, Grand Central has enticed visitors and locals alike, with quick bites and delicacies located in the Grand Central Market, fine cuisine in the Dining Concourse and free arts events in Vanderbilt Hall.

A visit to New York City wouldn’t be complete without a trip to Rockefeller Plaza, where skaters glide across the rink and thousands of lights gleam from the always-enormous annual tree in the winter, and outdoor dining options abound in the warmer months.
