The quintessential symbol of New York City was the tallest building in the world for almost 40 years after the 1,250-foot Art Deco skyscraper located in Midtown Manhattan was completed in 1931. The 103-story Empire State Building designed by William F. Lamb was designated one of the "Seven Wonders of the Modern World" by the American Society of Civil Engineers and came in first place of America's Favorite Architecture in a 2006-07 poll sponsored by the American Institute of Architects. It has observation decks on the 86th and 102nd floors as well as the New York Skyride simulator on its second floor. The U.S. National Historic Landmark is lit up in various colors with skylights near its top for special occasions. The stunning structure has been featured in countless films and television shows.

This 305-foot tall iconic emblem of the United States and freedom was designed by Frederic Auguste Bartholdi and has welcomed immigrants to "The Land of Opportunity" for centuries on its perch on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. The Statue of Liberty was given to the United States as a gift from France in 1896 because the two countries were allies during the American Revolution. Lady Liberty depicts the Roman Goddess of Freedom Libertas and the shackles on her feet represent oppression. The Neoclassical statue had to be separated into 350 pieces to be shipped to the United States. Don't forget to read the unforgettable Emma Lazarus poem engraved on the U.S. National Historic Landmark statue's base.

The largest museum in the United States and one of the biggest in the world has more than two million art works ranging from prehistoric times to the present. The Metropolitan Museum of Art opened in 1870 and its 2 million-square-foot building is located in New York City's Central Park. Its vast collection includes approximately 15,000 American works, 2,500 European paintings, 36,000 Egyptian pieces, 12,000 Islamic objects and 35,000 costumes. A 64,500-square-foot wing is dedicated to Asian art. The museum is visited by approximately 4.7 million people per year.

Also known as Freedom Tower, this 1,776-foot tall skyscraper is the tallest building in the United States and the main structure for the new World Trade Center complex. After the 9/11 terrorist attacks destroyed the original World Trade Center Twin Towers located south of the new site, a plan to rebuild in memoriam of the tragedy was developed and construction began in 2006 with steel from the original building placed in the base. The 104-story One World Trade Center designed by David M. Childs has office space, retail stores, restaurants and an observation deck. A bronze monument dedicated to the response of military special forces members after September 11 stands in front of the building.

Referred to as "The Center of the Universe" and "The Crossroads of the World," Times Square is the world's most popular tourist attraction welcoming more than 39 million people to the intersection of Broadway and Seventh Avenue in Midtown Manhattan every year. Dozens of electronic signs and the Broadway Theatre District's bright lights illuminate the plaza where there's always excitement in the air and a buzz of activity amongst the collection of stores, restaurants, theaters, attractions and street performers. Times Square was originally called Longacre Square until the iconic newspaper "The New York Times" moved there in 1904.

The history of this fascinating city is steeped in the founding of the United States. Visit Independence Hall to see the place where the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776 and the US Constitution was adopted in 1787. Take a tour of Congress Hall, the US Capitol from 1790 to 1800, and the site of the inauguration of George Washington and John Adams, as well as the ratification of the Bill of Rights. No visit to Philadelphia is complete without a peek at the Liberty Bell, originally used to summon lawmakers to legislative sessions at Philadelphia State House.

The 12-acre attraction in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, offers visitors an inside look at the Amish way of life as well as lessons from a real Amish school teacher.
