Manhattan, New York City - Borough of Manhattan

Manhattan is the most densely populated of New York City's five boroughs, home to 1.6 million people living on a land area measuring 23 sq. miles (60 sq. km). Many of the city's world famous attractions are located right here in Manhattan. Therefore it's not surprising that the borough is the most visited destination in New York City. Manhattan is home to the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Times Square, Central Park, Chinatown, Rockefeller Center, and the Brooklyn  Bridge to name a few.
