| New York State and Visitor Information |
| New York is the northernmost of the Middle Atlantic states. Its shape is like
that of a great funnel, tilted on its side. From the northeast to the southwest the state
is bounded by the Canadian province of Quebec, the St. Lawrence River, Lake Ontario, the
Niagara River, and Lake Erie. On the southern border are Pennsylvania, the Delaware River,
and New Jersey. In the southeastern corner of the state are the New York City area
and Long Island, which extends for 118 miles (190 kilometers) east of the main part of the
state. Along the eastern border of the state, from south to north, are Connecticut,
Massachusetts, Vermont, and Lake Champlain. Some people say that New York has two
regions: New York City and "Upstate"—i.e., everything else. In fact, New
York is a large state with a number of distinct travel regions. Metro New York is the largest city in the United States, is possibly the most well known and celebrated city in the world. A city of towering skyscrapers, ethnic diversity, international corporations, and incomparable culture, New York often serves to represent the entire country to foreign visitors. New York's diversity is on full display when considering its cuisines. New York City, of course, as the point of arrival for so many immigrants, is home to some of the most authentic and most diverse ethnic cuisines in the country. Even upstate, though, in cities not known for their diversity, you can find plenty of variety. Taste some of the best vintages of New York State on the wine trail in the Finger Lakes Region. Art galleries abound from Buffalo to the Big Apple or go to a Yankee, Giants or Mets game. It only takes a New York minute to attend a Broadway show in New York City by subway or taxi. Bed and breakfasts in New York are the perfect introduction to this exciting state. Whether you head to New York City or Upstate New York, whereever you go there are a wide range of bed & breakfasts, country inns, historic hotels, guesthouses, cottages, to choose from. |
