New York City is the most recognisable city in the world — a place whose skyline, energy and cultural mythology have shaped global imagination more profoundly than any other urban environment. The five boroughs of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island form the most complex, diverse and inexhaustible city in the Western Hemisphere, a place where you can spend weeks and feel you've only scratched the surface. Manhattan is the island at the centre of it all — the skyscrapers of Midtown and Downtown, Central Park (843 acres of designed nature in the heart of the city), the museums of the Upper East Side (the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim, the American Museum of Natural History), the brownstone neighbourhoods of the Upper West Side and Harlem, the bohemian energy of Greenwich Village and the East Village, and the galleries and designer restaurants of Chelsea and the Meatpacking District. Brooklyn has transformed into one of the world's most creative and culinarily exciting urban areas — DUMBO, Williamsburg, Park Slope and Red Hook each have distinctive characters. The Brooklyn Bridge walk, the High Line park (in Manhattan) and the 9/11 Memorial are must-experiences. Times Square is overwhelming and worth witnessing once. The Staten Island Ferry is free and gives the best views of the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty. New York is expensive but offers extraordinary value in its free institutions.

London is one of the world's most dynamic and culturally rich cities, straddling the Thames in the heart of England. Few cities can match its blend of ancient history and cutting-edge modernity — within a single afternoon you can stand in a medieval tower, explore a world-class contemporary art gallery and eat your way through a street food market representing every corner of the globe. The city's neighbourhoods each have a distinct personality. Shoreditch buzzes with creative energy and independent cafés; Notting Hill charms with pastel-painted terraces and the famous Portobello Road market; South Bank offers riverside walks, the Tate Modern and the Globe Theatre. Families gravitate toward the Science Museum and Natural History Museum, both free to enter, while history lovers lose themselves in the British Museum or the Tower of London. Transport is excellent — the Underground (the Tube) connects virtually everywhere, and the Oyster card system makes travel seamless. The best time to visit is May to September when the parks are at their finest and outdoor events fill the calendar. London rewards slow exploration: linger in a pub, watch the Changing of the Guard, or simply wander a canal towpath in Little Venice.
