Empire State Building Ticket

The Empire State Building is New York’s most famous skyscraper, at the corner of Fifth Avenue and 34th Street in Midtown. The observatory ticket takes you up to the open-air deck around the top, with views in every direction over Central Park, the Hudson and East rivers and the financial district to the south. On the way up, exhibits tell the story of the building’s construction and the films shot here. Ticket types and daily prices appear once you pick a date, and sunset slots tend to sell out early. Go early in the morning or late at night to avoid queues, and bring a jacket as the wind at the top can be cold.
