Whether you enjoy shopping normally or not, shopping at some of the legendary destinations in the US can be quite exciting and fun. Of course in order to properly shop you have to have a fair amount of money to spend, but window shopping can be fun as well. If you’re looking for a fresh new kind of vacation, consider the destinations below:

1. Mall of America, Minneapolis

Almost everyone has heard of the Mall of America, but many people have yet to experience it. This 520+ store behemoth is the grand-daddy of all shopping malls. Literally everything you could possibly think of is available for sale at the Mall of America. Obviously due to the massive tourism industry surrounding the Mall, prices are fairly high. However, for most people, the experience is well worth the price. If you can’t afford to drop much money, visiting the Mall of America can still be very fun, even if you only go for a day. There are so many activities and things to see that you will find it hard to get bored.

Manhattan is a lively part of New York City, famous for its chic, sophisticated urban lifestyle and makes an excellent base from which to explore the rest of this amazing city.

The Hotel Lucerne offers luxurious accommodation in the heart of one of Manhattan’s most sought after areas, the Upper West Side, and has a wonderful European style that offers spacious and modern rooms all housed in a historic building that dates back to 1904. The Lucerne offers the ideal base for both tourists and business travelers, and the luxurious rooms feature full size desks, high speed WiFi access, printing services and 24 hour room service. The hotel also has a renowned restaurant ‘Nice Matin’, which offers breakfast, lunch  and dinner, and is popular with both locals and tourists for its relaxing, sophisticated atmosphere and high class food and wine menus.

According to hotels.com, American hotel prices have dropped sharply in order to compensate for the reduced tourist season and to attract customers by offering a range of discounts and other promotions.

Similarly, worldwide price drops have occurred, but at the minute, the USA is the worst affected, alongside Asia which also recorded drops of around 17% according to recent observations.

An interesting museum is the Gugenheim

Now heres something really useful for all the New Yorkers or travelers visiting New York. TriptropNYC is a free web-based service that allows you find out how long it takes to get from one place to another. Even though the service is limited to New York only but it may turn out to be a real helpful tool for many travelers out there.

The New York State is one of America’s most popular destinations, and has a lot to offer visitors from the vibrant and bustling New York City, to Long Island with its beautiful beaches and boardwalks. New York State also has some fantastic mountainous regions in the upstate Catskill and Adirondack areas, where visitors can go skiing, snowboarding and hiking through the stunning slopes and valleys.

There are plenty of cheap flights available to New York, and both the urban and rural environments are beautiful to visit any time of year, making a perfect summer or winter holiday destination. New York State is in the Mid-Atlantic area, and has very cold, snowy winters and hot humid summers, so whatever season you are visiting make sure you pack appropriate clothing and footwear.

talia is well known for pizza, Singapore for the asian food, Argentina for huge juicy steaks. This the truth, O.K. And if you want to find and taste them in the same place, go to New York! If you want to know more about secret corners of New York, be welcome here!

Where else in the world can you enjoy the best kitchen inventions? Where else can you find bigger dishes, free portions, more sophisticated sauces? Where else can you see the shadows of the Twin Towers ? (On that location is builded the freedom Tower, ready in 2012).

I ate in New York the world’s best pretzels, cooked by jewish bakers, according to a traditional recipe! The traditional Italian pizza took in N.Y huge proportions; the kebab, falafel, hamburger and hot dogs taste very different in New York, at least in my opinion. Dream and name a dish impossible to find in New York, or send me 100 $! I am sure to win this bet.

1. The gate of the mega city Seoul burned in a huge fire, and it is completely destroyed. There already some plans to rebuild it. I bag the happy ones to have already saw it to tell us something about it with photographs!

2. Paris is not only the city of loved couples. Statistically speaking, there take place most of the separations and arguments between lovers. It most be quite a sensation to separate from your partner in Paris! Much nicer than in London, of course.

3. There are many projects of sending cars far away from overcrowded or over polluted cities. In Athens, to protect Akropolis, the circulation by car is strong reduced. Following that model the Maire Bloomberg of New York city and also the maire of London launched some interesting law propositions aiming to reduce noise and fumes. The initiatives failed now, but I hope that someone will be able to let them pass! What do you think about Manhattan without cars? Only bikes and planes will be allowed!
