The best time to visit New York City is during the Spring and Fall when the weather is mild and over the Holiday Season (November and December).
Christmas in New York City
New York City is a fabulous place to visit, especially during the Holiday Season. Rockefeller Center’s giant Christmas tree provides a festive backdrop to the ice-skating rink below. The area is filled with throngs of tourists and holiday shoppers, making it a great place for people-watching. See the Tree Lighting in December and be sure to visit the Top of the Rock Observation Deck to get a bird’s eye view of the city – it’s spectacular!
New Year’s Eve at Times Square
Times Square is world-famous for its annual New Years Eve celebrations and its “lowering of the Ball,” attended by thousands of people and watched by millions more on TV.
