Shopping on 5th Avenue is a must. Even if you only window shop. Prices are standard. My wife bought a Michael Kors watch which wasn't available in the UK and the price was the same as we had seen in other shops throughout New York. People in the shops didn't look down on tourists and were really friendly.

There is so, soooooooooooooo much to see on 5th Avenue, New York City. The Avenue is diverse. There is a mix of intentional green space that intersects the built environment. There are world-renowned museums, incredible restaurants, and more, The per capita income of the people who live here are among the highest in all of New York City. Observe Billionaires Row. Look at the amazing architecture. Feel free to access the subway system or hail a taxi. As a visitor, concentrate on a small section of a time. Pick a museum, or a part of a museum, to enjoy. Take advantage of the events. When the weather is nice, go to Central Park.
