Christmas In NYC

There really is no better place to visit during the Christmas season than NYC. With all the decorations and good cheer from the nearly 20 million people living there, you can't help but get the warm and fuzzies.

Of course there is tons to do, but here's a fun guide for the Christmas season:
Holiday Fairs- stands are set up throughout the city that sell holiday gifts and decorations, much in the German tradition. Be sure to check out the fairs in Columbus Circle, Union Square, Bryant Park, and Grand Central Terminal.

Rockefeller Center- it's packed shoulder to shoulder but you can't miss seeing a magnificent tree.

Down the street from Rockefeller are all the department stores with their window displays. I promise they aren't chintzy like in your little old town with mannequins dressed in store clothes with a velvet drop cloth. No, this if full throttle fancy shit. So whimsical, so fantastical, you will totally get why lines form early.

I really love New York during Christmas.
