Answer :

Are you talking about NYC or NY state? If NYC, my answer would depend on whether you’ve been to NYC before. The usual tourist destinations may be cliche’, but they’re still worth seeing. Every time I visit, I spend a full day of the Museum of Natural History. I could spend weeks in the museums alone. If you’ve never seen Cirque du Soleil, you should definately spend the money to see it. The list is practically endless.
