The Empire State Building and the lower Manhattan captured from the NBC Tower's Observatory. According to me this is the best view of the New York that anybody can get. I had preferred NBC towers this time instead of the Empire States for the simple reason that I had been to the city's tallest tower on both of my two previous visits. For reasons unknown most of the NY's visitors do not have NBC towers in their place of interests and would rather prefer The Empire State, where they eventually end up waiting for upto 2-3 hrs in the overcrowded queues. I was lucky enough to visit tower's Observation deck and take this shot. Hey people, if you are planning to go to NY or not have been to NBC Towers, make it a point you visit the "Top of the Rock".
It is a must.
