This culturally diverse city has seen tourism increase 28 percent since 1996 and is expected to rise again throughout 2003. This is the most up-to-date guide of New York City available. It offers a great mix of the cultural and practical, with options in all price ranges, including a brand new dining critic who sheds light on the Big Apple's incredibly diverse restaurant scene. The entire book has been reorganised to make things even easier to find, with 'cross-street' references (a must for navigating the city) now included in every entry. It contains a pleasing mix of the 'hip and trendy' and the traditional New York tourist spots.
