8. New York Public Library
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Tiffany WoodsThe main branch of the New York Public Library, situated on the edge of Bryant Park, is one of the most peaceful places in the city, which makes it one of my favorites. Many well-known movies have filmed there, including Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Ghostbusters, Spider-Man, Sex and the City, and 13 Going on 30.

9. TAO Uptown
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Emy MooreThanks in some part to Sex and the City , Tao has become one of Manhattan’s most iconic restaurants. For the four ladies it was the place to go. It was also the scene of the world’s most uncomfortable double date with Carrie and her jazz musician and Big and his model.

Sex and the City: Trey MacDougal proposes to Charlotte in front of Tiffany's and they pick out "the most beautiful ring they have."
