So much of the fun and excitement of New York can be experienced outdoors. You're sure to get a feel for the city--and some great photographs--just by putting on those sneakers and heading outside. Whether you're walking through Greenwich Village or Times Square, or enjoying the scenery and amenities of world-famous Central Park, you're sure to have the time of your life.

Central Park is a wonderful spot for people who love to be outside. This 843-acre park is one of New York's most famous vacation stops for tourists. The park is broken down into four sections; North End, The Reservoir, Great Lawn, and South End. Among the features of the North End of the Park you will find highlights like Duke Ellington Circle, Untermyer Fountain, Burnett Memorial Fountain, a variety of playgrounds and the pool. The Reservoir offers the tennis center, the reservoir, a bridle path and three playgrounds. Great Lawn features Seneca Village, Shakespeare Garden, theatres, Belvedere Castle, Loeb Boathouse, and a variety of playgrounds. The park also features a Zoo with a petting zoo and wildlife area.

Times Square is formed by Broadway crossing over 7th Ave, between 47th and 42nd Streets. The area was once used for horse trading and now houses the city's theatre district. It is also home of the Times Tower, where that famed, lighted ball drops down a pole to count down the New Year. The sight of Times Square is something most visitors with it's bright lights, flashing digital screens, gigantic billboards and stock tickers.

Greenwich Village is perfect for shopping or visiting a small caf'. The village is home to Washington Square, where you can find street musicians, jugglers, stand-up comics and other entertainers to thrill you with their skills. This is the perfect place to go to experience small-town ambiance mixed in with big-city excitement and culture.

Woodbury Common Premium Outlets is a village-like outlet center located one hour from Manhattan, and offers 220 stores that bring shoppers the best name brands at discounted prices as well as an array of dining opportunities. Walk among the beautiful walkways and find names like Nautica, Gucci, Versace, Coach, DKNY, and Banana Republic at savings of up to 65% off every day. Walking among the stores affords shoppers to spend a healthy day of outdoor walking while enjoying their favorite pastime.

For waterfront fun, Spirit Cruises offers a Lunch and Dinner Cruise. The boat features a huge outdoor deck, and seeing the sights of New York outdoors has never been this exciting. Spirit City Cruises offers both the Classic Spirit Cruise and the Spirit City Cruise. You can enjoy Broadway-style entertainment while eating your meal. After dinner, relax to the awe-inspiring view of the New York Skyline. The Spirit City Cruise offers a menu featuring New American Cuisine and the food is brought directly to your table. The Classic Spirit Cruise offers a generous buffet with coffee and desert served at tableside.
