Christmas sounds MAGICAL when we imagine it in the US. And the city of New York is just singing and looking like Christmas and that’s how it looks like during Christmas. Every one of us has always had a dream of being in NYC in the month of December until its New Year. Though everything is crowded and moving still the amazing lights, music, and displays are enough to keep us engaged even on the streets of NYC.
We would love to visit New York during the Christmas season with our friends and family and so get packed and get ready for the excitement and crowds.
For all of us, December is one month that is full of fun and with the coming of the holidays, New York has got an even better pack of special events, like ice skating, and shopping in the markets which give us holiday treats, or even the lighting displays will be enough to make our day memorable.
What can be the best things to do in NYC during Christmas and New Year?
Go Ice Skating in the Central Park
Get to go Ice Skating as the Wolman Rink in Central Park is ready to give you enough amount of snow to go skating with your friends and family. The park offers activities and sports like ice skating, ice hockey, skating school, and not to forget the party facilities too! So be there on Christmas so you do not miss them.

Also, when you are looking for some live entertainment and having fun in the season, then missing this one will be the biggest mistake during the Christmas and New Year seasons.
The Empire State Building
Just sit back and chill in the center of the NYC skyline, and then you get to view through the Empire State Building all of the central spotlights of things. Every year, you will see that with the start of the Christmas season, and the opening night of Radio City, the top of this iconic structure is beautifully lit up with Red and Green lights to mark the beginning of the celebration of Christmas. This is done during the months of November and December.
