New York City is an amazing place to visit at any time of the year, but especially in the winter. It’s too chilly to see most of the outdoor sites in the city, but there is plenty to do even if you aren’t outside. There’s always plenty to see and do in Time Square. You may even want to check to see if “the cowboy” is out singing in the winter. I don’t understand how he can sing in his underwear in the cold in NYC, but he can apparently. If you have children, it’s always great to check out the Toys R Us store in Time Square. Riding the indoor ferris wheel is such fun for the kids! The toy displays change all the time, so it’s a great place to visit frequently in the winter. Venturing outside Time Square, you can stop to window shop at Saks, and check out the window displays at Macy’s. There are many 24 hour book stores open in NYC. Chances are that you’ll find a gem to read in one of those stores. Trump Tower is another fun place to visit in the winter time. You can eat at the restaurant in the building and watch the indoor waterfall! Stop to window shop at some of the shops in the second floor of the building! A trip to NYC in the winter wouldn’t be complete without a trip to Rockefeller Center to watch the ice skaters. If you are brave enough, you may even want to lace up and skate yourself!
