Shopping in Manhattan + Outlet Shopping
There's no place like New York for serious shoppers. If you're looking for a great collection of designer boutiques, head straight for Madison Avenue or SoHo. Searching for a glittering array of engagement rings? Try Tiffany's, Cartier, or the Diamond District. Where can you bargain for knock-off handbags, sunglasses and watches? Along Canal Street. Stroll down Fifth Avenue from 59th Street to 39th Street and you can make convenient detours into Bergdorf Goodman, Henri Bendel, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Lord & Taylor. Avenue of the Americas (Sixth Avenue) between 18th & 23rd Streets is known for smart business wear and casual wear.
