New York simply because of New York City.  There's so much culture.  Broadway is my favorite "tourist attraction" in NYC, but there's so much more.  Celebrity talk shows, TV shows, comedy clubs, museums, the Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, Wall Street, Times Square, Central Park, Little Italy, Chinatown, Greenwich Village, Columbia, shopping, bars, etc.  There really is something for everyone!

I never really asked myself why New York City is also called "The Big Apple". Today I found the answer... At least a possible one.\n\nI went to Harlem and walked around for a couple of hours. I happend to come across the "Uptown Saterday Nite" Festival which is part of the 2005 Harlem Week. Nothing sensational but on the corner of 135th Street and 7th Avenue I noticed this old red building with a sign showing an upside down apple saying "The Big Apple". I took a photograph and went on.\nAfter coming home I did a little research on the internet, looking for this particular sign in Harlem. That's how I found out about the history of this sign and New Yorks nickname.\n\nIn the 1920's Jazz musicians picked the term "Big Apple" up from horseracing people who considered New York races and gigs to be where the big money was. Since a horse, up for a big purse in New York City, can't get paid off in big money himself, the lingo promised him a big apple. At this time a night club opened in Harlem called "The Big Apple". Some historians think that New Yorks nickname may have come from this long forgotten club. The club is gone, the sign, with its upside down apple, is still there.\n\nFor another theory you may want to read this article from the Society for New York City History.

NY the state realizes that NY the city is full of nuts.\nHeck- even parts of NYC want to break away and reform into their own cities, just like they used to be. (Staten Island, Brooklyn, etc all used to be individual cities.)

It is called the Empire State because of one of the world's tallest buildings the Empire State Building is there and people that live in New York are called New Yorkers.
