8Empire State Building
Few skyscrapers are as iconic as the Empire State Building. Standing at 1,454 feet, this architectural marvel offers some of the best views of New York City. The observation decks on the 86th and 102nd floors provide panoramic views that stretch for miles, making it a popular spot for both tourists and locals alike.
The building itself is a testament to New York’s early 20th-century architectural grandeur. Visit at sunset or in the evening to see the city light up beneath you, or go in the morning for a quieter experience with fewer crowds.
