Try to keep in mind when you visit Broadway how very long it is. Also give some thought to visiting parts of the street that are not in Times Square! There's more to this incredible avenue than overpriced Disney themed stores. As a tourist you might gasp at the prices for your meals or souvenirs, but I guarantee you that if you will just take, for instance, the M104 bus up to Broadway in the 70s, 80s, 90s and above, you will be stunned at how different it is. I Go to Gray's Papaya at 72nd and Broadway, to the West Side diner at 82nd and Broadway, to Zabar's in the low 80s, to Fairway Market at 74th and Broadway, to the wonderful different international restaurants all the way up and down. Stop at 125th street and go east to explore that great street too. Not to mention that the M104 also turns east at 42nd Street and goes as far east as the UN, which you were going to see also, right? You could spend your whole trip just on Broadway! Don't let it be limited.
