  1. Grand Central Terminal is a nice place to visit in New York. I have been there after my nyc niagara tours with my family. It is a famous NYC landmark in Midtown Manhattan and located on 42nd St and Park Ave. It is one of the busiest train stations in the world, and serves nearly 200,000 NYC commuters every day. This place is home to 44 train platforms, several great NY restaurants, and some of the most beautiful Beaux-Arts architecture in NYC.
