🌆 Exploring New York City: American Museum of Natural History & Times Square!

If you love epic sights, cultural gems, and buzzing city lights, this itinerary is all about the best of NYC! Whether you're just landing at JFK or already in Manhattan, here's how to hit two top spots in one day.

Must-See Places:
1. American Museum of Natural History 🦕

Admission: $193
Tip: Arrive early to beat the queues and budget extra time for dinosaur halls and planetarium—they're huge and worth every minute!

2. Times Square 🌠
Address: Manhattan, NY 10036

Getting Around 🚇:
NYC subways connect both spots easily—take the B or C line to the museum, then hop on the 1, 2, or 3 trains to get to Times Square. Buy a single-day MetroCard for unlimited rides (super handy!).

Grab street pizza near the museum or go classic NY diner style in Times Square. Try Junior’s Cheesecake (1515 Broadway) for dessert—legendary!

Key City Tips:
Bring a portable battery for your phone (photos galore!). All main spots accept cards, so don’t stress about carrying cash. Weather can swing wildly—pack a light jacket or umbrella just in case.
