That sounds like fun! You should definitely plan on going to Times Square, just because there is so much to see and many fun shops. If you want to do any shopping for clothes, you may want to try going to Century 21 in the Financial District! You just have to take the subway to Fulton Street! If you haven't heard of it before (which I hadn't until I moved here!) it's this AWESOME, HUGE store with all kinds of designer clothes that are really discounted!!! I mean, nice stuff that is %75 less than it would be anywhere else! And it's just a really fun experience! The shoes are great too, and again everything is really cheap! I'm not sure how much time you'll have in the city or how many days you'll be here but you should also check out Little Italy or Chinatown for some cheap, fun souvenir shops and of course to eat :) If you eat in Little Italy and want to have the best dessert EVER for your birthday, you should go to this place called Ferrara's. For about $7 or $8 you can get 3 "mini" desserts, (which really aren't that small and still fill you up!) and it will probably be the best dessert you've ever had! I'm definitely having my husband take me there on my birthday this year! :) Other things you may want to do if the weather is nice is check out Central Park, which has all kinds of things going on all the time. And of course, you can always go to a Broadway Show! There are tons of great ones out there, and that would be a really fun experience for you guys! I hope you have a great time and if you have any more questions feel free to ask!Fun things to do in NYC for 2 16 year old girls? ?
There are a lot of things you should go to see. You should definitely try to go see the Ellis Island and the Statue Of Liberty. The website I鈥檓 giving you is for directions to the ferry station, where you can go see Ellis Island and the Statue Of Liberty. Unfortunately, the interior of the Statue Of Liberty is closed, but the wonderful statue is beautiful. The website is here %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt; http://www.ny.com/transportation/ellis.h鈥?/a>

While in New York, I STRONGLY suggest you go to see a fun show called Fuerzabruta in downtown New York. It is very fun! It's almost like a club, but there's no age limit! In the main lobby, there is a bar for refreshments, and there are souvenirs of the show, like little key chains and t-shirts. Here is the official website %26gt;%26gt;%26gt; http://fuerzabrutanyc.com/Fun things to do in NYC for 2 16 year old girls? ?
