4) Las Vegas Strip (29,467,000)

The Las Vegas Strip is everything you expect it to be and much more.  Many of the largest casinos hotels are located on this strip, making it the place to see and be seen. The movie, Hangover, saved this Sin City by going down due to recession.  There’s so much to do here from shopping, gambling and sight-seeing. Even if you’re not someone who likes to be a part of the action, people-watching will also be hugely entertaining here.

It’s not only one of the busiest stations in the world, Union station is also the most visited destination in Washington.  It transports about 12, 500 passengers daily to their destinations.  What makes it even more popular is that it has 130 stores which stock everything from men’s fashion to jewelry to games and toys, making it a premier shopping destination. Union station also serves as a venue for world-class exhibitions and international cultural events.  Tourists also come here to marvel at the mixed architectural styles found throughout the massive buildings.

2) Central Park, New York City (38,000,000)

Central Park is the famous park in New York City. The park was first opened in 1857. Its 850 acres of lush green spaces is a paradise for both locals and tourists. From picnics with friends to riding in a horse-drawn carriage with your special someone, there’s something here for everyone. If you want something more active, climb to the top of the 19th century Belvedere castle or visit the zoo. Best of all, after a hard day at work or a nice workout, just sprawl out on the Great Lawn and gaze at the skyscrapers above.

1) Times Square, New York City (39,200,200)

Times Square is the most lively square of New York. It is known for its Broadway shows, its buildings covered with billboards and of course, the wide array of amazing stores. The billboards have become such a popular tourist attraction that the zoning now requires the buildings to be covered with billboards! The energy of the place is such that it makes you want to be a part of it. Moreover, pedestrian-only areas with café tables were introduced in 2009 which have increased the number of tourists and locals flocking there. It’s also very well-located and can be reached easily via subways, rails, buses and yellow taxis.
