Top of the Rock is a first-rate sightseeing attraction in midtown Manhattan. Visitors can ogle great views of Manhattan from three observation decks on the top of famous 30 Rockefeller Plaza, a prime New York City address with a history that dates back to 1929.
The three observation decks start at the 67 floor. Highlights of a visit to Top of the Rock include:
- terrific views
- a well-presented visitor experience that portrays the building's history
- timed admission (read: no line-ups)
- a GPS-activated audio/visual guide that provides information about the landmarks in view
Rockefeller Center is a NYC institution, covering many city blocks between 48th and 51st street, and fondly known in winter for its outdoor skating rink. Rockefeller Center is also home to NBC Studios (where visitors can take a Studio Tour) and Radio City Music Hall, another popular tourist spot.
