New York is one of the most filmed cities on earth. Generations of moviegoers have seen New York depicted and distorted, celebrated and denigrated, idealized and mocked, built up and demolished over and over again on the big screen. Over the past 100 years, legions of filmmakers have drawn attention to New Yorkers’ joys and struggles, shaping our ideas of what the city is—or could become.
You Are Here draws on this rich archive of movies set in New York, combining thousands of cinematic moments across 16 screens. Sources include Hollywood blockbusters, independent films, documentaries, and experimental works. By juxtaposing these multiple visions, the dazzling montages of You Are Here make connections and contrasts that allow movies to comment on each other across time and space. Together, they shed new light on the varied New Yorks of our collective imagination.
Sometimes New York stars in these movies; sometimes, a studio set or even another city stands in. In the introductory room, Scenes from the City explores the city as a film set, showing how movies have been captured on location throughout the five boroughs. From there, we invite you to enter the immersive central space, where you can explore a narrative tapestry woven from hundreds of films—one impressionistic storyline that strives to represent the multifaceted realities of our countless New York stories.

Metropolitan Museum of Art: Inception Space for Human Civilization This 130,000 square-metre maze hides a larger landscape than the New York skyline. It is recommended to start your time-travel from the Greek and Roman exhibition halls - the sun shines through the glass dome on the 6th century BC marble statues, the lines of the muscles of the gods are still breathing. The temple of the Danyu Temple in the Egyptian Pavilion is the most breathtaking. The complete 15th century BC temple was moved by the wealthy in 1965 and is now soaked in artificial pools, the water reflects the modern tourists, forming a absurd space-time shadow. The &quot;Pharmacist&#39;s Changing Map&quot; in the Asian exhibition hall on the second floor always sits with a thoughtful oriental face, and the Tiffany glass window in the American Wing Courtyard is always a collection of selfie net reds. The real magic happens half an hour before the closing. As the crowd disperses, you can be alone with Van Gogh&rsquo;s self-portrait on the empty European Painting Corridor, watching the twisted brush strokes of the canvas awaken in the dusk. The $25 suggested ticket is a bargain - here you buy not a ticket but a night flight permit for the human civilization of 3,000 years.

Statue of Liberty

Book now for today

The Statue of Liberty: Green Rust Mottled American Fable This bronze sculpture presented by the French has long been the most expensive postcard in New York. As you take the crowded ferry near Liberty Island, you will see the goddess&#39; rusty abrasive glow in the sun - an inch thick layer of oxide, just like the hard-to-ignore years of pulp on the surface of the American Dream. The experience of the crown is full of metaphors. The process of climbing the 354-level spiral staircase is like the struggle of new immigrants: the more up space the more forced, the final look out from the 25 small windows of the crown, the Manhattan skyline becomes a cut-out fragment. In front of the poem tablet of the new giant on the pedestal, tourists from all over the country took turns taking pictures with the verses of &quot;Give me your tired&quot;, and the number of strollers in the security team suggested that the migrant story was still being written. The most moving moment was at dusk. When the sun set on the torch, the saxophonists on the cruise ship began to play &quot;America the Beautiful&quot;. At this time, the goddess turned back to Wall Street and faced the Atlantic Ocean - a position that has been held for 137 years, whether to welcome or farewell.

Night view

Empire Building: The Evening Ceremony of the Skyscraper As the peak of the Art Deco, this 102-story giant has long surpassed the meaning of the building itself. Even if the New World Trade Center took away the title of &quot;New York&#39;s tallest&quot;, its golden age of steel rivets still made every visitor willing to pay $42 for tickets. The open-air observation deck is the real soul. When mist shrouded Manhattan, You will suddenly understand why workers risked their lives in 1931 to operate here - from this high overlooking Central Park into emerald town paper, the ferry on the East River turned into glowing beetles. The 102-story all-glass viewing cabin brings sweet vertigo through the transparent floor underfoot, The elevator well is as soft as the bottomless abyss. Admission is recommended at 3pm. Enjoy the aluminum foil relief constellation dome in the lobby before reaching the top floor at sunset. Watch the sunset gilded the spire of Chrysler Building while your shadow is elongated projected onto the Hudson River. All the imaginations about New York will be fulfilled. Don&#39;t forget to touch the &quot;Builder Honor List&quot; of the North Wall when you leave the scene, and those workers who worked miracles in Depression Era are always more worth remembering than steel.

The Museum of Modern Art

E44***71

Visiting The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) was more than just viewing art-it was stepping into a space that truly celebrates creativity, openness, and diversity. I&#39;ve always admired how these institutions embrace all voices, ideas, cultures, large-scale installations, and video installation art.Being surrounded by the works of some of my favorite artists was incredibly inspiring and truly unforgettable.

Rockefeller Center

Visiting Rockefeller Center during Christmas and New Year was such a magical experience! I went with a friend during day time and night time, and the entire place felt like a winter wonderland. The massive Christmas tree, beautifully lit up, is even more stunning in person&mdash;it&rsquo;s like stepping into a holiday movie!

Ticket price is $20 for adults. After paying, you will be given a small square sticker to be put on your clothes.
It closes at 5 o&#39;clock, so you must grasp the visiting time
It seems that they are preparing for a banquet today. The corridor is messy. I will deduct some points for the cost performance.
