For the Apple faithfuls

Apple’s flagship store is a truly landmark at the southeast corner of Central Park, despite the fact that the entire store is under the street level. Only the entrance, a huge glass cube with simple Apple logo and nothing else, is visible to the street. But that is just enough to guide people to the Apple shrine downstairs.

The shop itself, as most Apple shops I’ve visited, is calm — computers and gadgets are spread around the big space, and everything can be tried. There is a lot of Apple clerks to help you with anything, and for any bigger trouble you can always go to the genius bar for some advice.

The shop is an excellent place to check your emails, as every computer has internet access and nobody stops you using it. And it is open 24 hours a day.
