New York City is a quick-change artist, famous for transforming overnight—so what's packed and popular this month may be passé by the time you arrive. It's impossible to see everything, regardless of its staying power, so instead try to soak in the sheer amount of culture, restaurants, exhibitions, and people here, and you'll be acting like a jaded New Yorker in no time. If you're a Foodie, you'll find the place to be paradise with more dining options than you can imagine. New York like Paris or London is a walking city, so make sure you've got comfortable shoes. There are a ton of great sites for the latest information on dining and entertainment options. Time Out, Fodors, and Frommers all have great New York City destination guides.
