Ever since I was little, I’ve always wanted to spend Christmas in New York City. I’m so excited that I can finally check it off of my bucket list. The decorations around the city are so beautiful, especially the prominent tree in Rockefeller Center. Two of my favorite Christmas movies are based in NYC (Home Alone & Eloise at Christmastime). So naturally, that gave me a another reason to re-live every movie scene that I possibly could.
I love traveling and I love big cities. I definitely recommend visiting NYC during Christmas at least once. Here are some of my must see places for a brief stay in NYC during the holiday season!
– Tree in Rockefeller {especially at night}
– Fifth Avenue Window Shopping {Saks, Lord & Taylor Tiffany & Co., Louis Vuitton, and Macy’s are my favs}
-The Plaza Hotel
-Carriage Ride in Central Park
-Ice Skating in Central Park, Rockefeller Center, or Bryant Park
– The Metropolitan Museum of Art {During the holiday season, the museum has a beautiful 20-foot Christmas Tree and Neapolitan Baroque Creche, with a nativity scene. And for Gossip Girl fans like me, the famous steps were filmed here}
