This exhibition of more than 50 striking photographs featuring the 25,000 miles of roads and trails that the Incas built six centuries ago in South America reveals the diversity of this road system — from broad paved highways to woven suspension bridges to beaten tracks through barren desert — and of the landscape through which it travels.

Great way to visit NY City
posted by Chuck on May-16-2012
Using Citypass is a great way to visit New York City! As international tourists, I brough my family to see New York City in late April, 2012. At one of the most popular tourist spots, the ferry of Status of Liberty, CityPass helps us skip the line at the ticket booth, so we can directly get to the line for ferry boarding. That saves us about an hour for the ticket purchase. I will highly recommand CityPass.
CityPass New York
posted by Paul Verheijen on May-15-2012
This was my first time traveling to NYC. I did my research trying to figure out what was the cheapest way to visit all places without spending a lot of money. On internet a Dutch man who lives in NY said the city pass was the BEST way to go. We went to the statue of liberty, on top of the rock, three of the museums, etc. It was easy and hassle free. I would recommend the city pass to anyone. we skipped most lines and we still got the best customer service. By my next visit to the USA, I surely buy a new citypass if possible. See you next time in the USA and thanks for for your hospitality. Paul

-
Which is higher: Top of the Rock Observation Deck or Empire State Building?
Rockefeller Center’s Top of the Rock observation deck is actually three floors atop the famous Midtown Manhattan skyscraper. The top floor is the 70th. New York CityPASS Empire State Building admission includes access to the legendary 86th floor observation deck.
The actual height is irrelevant as they offer incomparable New York experiences, each far different from the other. Both, by virtue of their commanding positions, have clear, unimpeded views. From the Empire State Building, one sees the Top of the Rock, built in a single year during the Great Depression as a symbol of American strength and resilience. Top of the Rock is the exclamation point on the Rockefeller’s dynastic hold on Manhattan real estate. It crowns a Midtown magnet for entertainment, shopping, dining and people watching.
-
Do I have to wait in the security line at the Empire State Building even with a CityPASS?
Yes. The Empire State Building isn’t just a New York attraction, it is a national icon and security of its facilities, tenants and guests is taken very seriously. So everyone goes through the airport-like security screening lines in advance of ascending to the observation level. Tip: Go early or go at dusk to avoid the longest lines in summer, on weekends and holidays.

We recommend for convenience and efficiency that you plan ahead – or take a moment in the lobby – to decide what you want to see, securing extra admissions before heading into the museum’s vast halls.
-
Is the Rose Center next to the American Museum of Natural History?
Rose Center for Earth and Space is part of the American Museum of Natural History complex of halls.
