Nicknamed "The Big Apple", NYC is the most populous city in the United States. Situated in the state of New York, the city has served as the gateway to the USA for countless immigrants from countries all over the world. New York has the highest population density in North America and its metropolitan area counting approx. 18.9 million residents is one of the largest urban areas in the world. New York is the ultimate world metropolis, influential as a business and economic center, and since World War II as a financial center of both national and global importance. Home to the United Nations, New York is a major platform for international diplomacy. Innumerable galleries, performance venues and hundreds of museums confirm the fact that New York is one of the most important cultural centers of the world. Various movements such as the Harlem Renaissance in visual art and literature, abstract expressionism in painting and hip-hop in music, had their beginnings in this cultural melting pot. Always something to do, hear, see, experience - New York really is "the city that never sleeps".
