Christmas in New York - Top Things To Do
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ต.ค. 2024
- New York is magical during the Holidays! Here are my favorite things to do in the city at Christmas time...
1. Rockefeller Center
This is one of the most crowded areas in NYC at this time. Try to come early or late and avoid the crowd!
2. Sacks Fifth Avenue Light Show
Right across the street from the Rockefeller tree is Sacks Fifth Avenue. Their holiday light show gets better every year so don't miss it!
3. Holiday Window Displays
Start at the bottom of Central Park and walk down admiring the incredible Holiday Window Displays at some of New York's most famous stores:
Barneys - 660 Madison Avenue between 60th and 61st Streets
Bloomingdale's - 59th Street and Lexington Avenue
Bergdorf Goodman - 754 Fifth Avenue at 58th Street
Tiffany & Co - 727 Fifth Avenue between 56th and 57th Streets
Cartier - 653 Fifth Avenue at 52nd Street
Saks Fifth Avenue - 611 Fifth Avenue between 49th and 50th Streets
Lord Lord & Taylor - 424 Fifth Avenue at 39th Street
Macy's - Sixth Avenue and 34th Street
4. Macy's Believe Campaign
Believers of all ages can bring their stamped letter to Macy’s addressed to 'Santa at The North Pole', and drop it into the special letterbox. You can also create and send a letter online at macys.com/believe. For each letter received, Macy’s will donate $1 to Make-A-Wish, up to $1,000,000!
Also, if you're looking to shop at Macy's. For the three days leading up to Christmas it is open 24 hours and it's nearly empty if you go late or early. It's almost unheard of to shop in a store that's not crowded at Christmas time in New York - so take advantage of it!
5. Holiday Markets
New York's Holiday Markets are the perfect place to find a unique gift. With hundreds of vendors between all of the markets - you are sure to find something for everyone on your list. Some of the biggest markets are at Union Square, Columbus Circle and Grand Central Station.
6. Ice Skating
Ice Skating in New York is a Christmas tradition! The best and most iconic ice skating rinks are at Rockefeller Center, Bryant Park and Central Park.
7. Explore!
The best thing about New York is that you can walk everywhere. Take 'wrong' turns and see what magic you find. Little Italy is one of my favorite areas to go at this time of year.
8. Rooftop Bars
Rooftop Bars are a must in New York any time of year. But don't be discouraged by the cold! A nice warm drink and some heat lamps make them a great winter activity - and a perfect date idea! Some of my favorites are 230 Fifth (location in the video), The Ides, Hudson Hotel and Refinery Rooftop.
Enjoy your time in New York City! Try not to spend too much time shopping - there is so much magic to be seen in one of the most iconic places to be this time of year :)

"Take a few wrong turns and see what you find", yourself in the wrong neighborhood lol.

I wasn't born in America but boy I'm telling you Christmas 🎄 is my favorite holiday. I remember first time I went to Manhattan on Christmas 🎄 it was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. I've been living in the us for quite a while now. I still do get mesmerize by how beautiful Manhattan is. On Christmas 🎄 I don't want to spend it no other place but here , the light the singing, decoration you can feel love in the air. I love America. It's August I'm praying for Christmas to come I can't wait . My favorite Holliday.

Very beautiful the Fantasy of Charles Dickens.
New York looks amazing for christmas
I wanna go to New York City to enjoy the Christmas..😍😍😍😍😍
Just went the December 6-11, 2017. Best trip I’ve ever been on. Bryant Park was one of my favorites. Of course we did the touristy things being that it was our first time there. Next time I’d like to find the hole in the wall places, local hangouts etc. Did an AIRBNB rental in Astoria, Queens. Such a good time. This may be our annual December trip. If you haven’t been, go!
Merry Christmas Raya! Hope to see you celebrating at Times Square this New Years! Weather permitting...happy New Year too!
from the Uk but i’m gonna make it my mission to go to New York around Christmas time😍
Love this. I am going this year December 2018 and cant wait
I’m so lucky I live here
Chanel Valente exactly you are no doubt
Chanel Valente living there is my dream

Wish I saw this video when I was actually in New York last year for Christmas!! Anyway a good enough reason to go back 😀
I used to live in New York. You did a great job with the different sites to visit. Christmas time in the city is the only time I like to go back and visit. Make sure you try and catch a Broadway show. Maybe the Rockettes Christmas Show and try Tavern on the Green in Central Park for dinner. Remember to bring your woolly hat and gloves. Merry Christmas
Very useful and helpful ℹ️ Thanks for sharing your tips.
Merry Christmas Raya :) WOW great video and great idea. New York is gorgeous. I never been to new York but it is my dream city and I wana live there my whole life :D
