Whether it\u2019s images of serene, snow-laden Central Park or whimsical scenes found in movies like Serendipity or When Harry Met Sally, New York City during the holidays is an exciting, romantic, and magical place. We\u2019ve partnered with NYC-based travel blogger Sher from Sher She Goes to discover some of the can’t miss things to do in New York City<\/a> this holiday season!<\/em><\/p>\n

Fun & Festive Things to Do in New York City This Holiday Season!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Vacation time is notoriously scarce, so deciding what to do during your time in the Big Apple<\/a> can easily become overwhelming. Blending classic favorites with under-the-radar gems, we’ve created a New Yorker-approved list of the best things to do this season \u2013 keep reading for more!<\/p>\n

1. <\/strong>Go Ice Skating at Rockefeller Center<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"Festive

Subway Station \u2013 Rockefeller Center (B, D, F, M trains)<\/p>\n

Admission \u2013 From $15 (children) and $25 (adults)<\/p>\n

Though many recommend Bryant Park\u2019s holiday market (more on this later!) as New York\u2019s premier ice skating venue, nothing beats ice skating in New York\u2019s famous Rockefeller Center. General admission tickets are sold on a first-come, first-served basis, but fortunately the rink opens at 8:30 in the morning and doesn\u2019t close until midnight!<\/p>\n

Plus, once you\u2019ve finished skating in the shadow of New York\u2019s most iconic (and largest!) Christmas tree, you\u2019re already in a prime location to enjoy the best of midtown Manhattan\u2019s dining, shopping, and entertainment scenes!<\/p>\n

2. Head to Brooklyn for the Dyker Heights Christmas Lights<\/strong><\/h2>\n\"\"\n

Subway Station \u2013 71st Street (D); 86th Street (R)<\/p>\n

Admission \u2013 Free!<\/p>\n

Every neighborhood seems to have that one house where the residents go all out for holiday decorations \u2013 a giant inflatable Santa Claus, loudspeaker-enhanced Christmas carols, and maybe a few motion-activated elves for good measure. Well, imagine a neighborhood where every house displays this level of Christmas decoration extravagance, and you\u2019ve imagined yourself in New York\u2019s Dyker Heights, located in southern Brooklyn. Dyker Heights residents feature their electric and stunning decorations (and allow guests to take pictures in front of them, too!) until 9:00 each evening from Thanksgiving through New Year\u2019s Eve!<\/p>\n

3. Hop Around New York\u2019s Many Holiday Markets<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Subway Station \u2013 Columbus Circle (A, B, C, D, 1); Bryant Park (B, D, F, M); Union Square (L, N, Q, R, W, 4, 5, 6)<\/p>\n

Admission \u2013 Free!<\/p>\n

Beloved by both locals and tourists, New York\u2019s holiday markets provide a uniquely fun shopping experience in New York\u2019s premier parks. Each market has hundreds of booths featuring one-of-a-kind clothing, gifts, and food vendors, and the setting is perfect for romantic dates, family outings, and casual strolls alike!<\/p>\n

The Columbus Circle (adjacent to Central Park) and Union Square Holiday Markets close on Christmas Eve, but the Bank of America Winter Village at Bryant Park (which also features the aforementioned 17,000 square-foot ice skating rink) runs through January 2nd!<\/p>\n

4. Go Window (or Real!) Shopping at Bergdorf Goodman\u2019s<\/strong><\/h3>\n\"\"\n

Subway Station \u2013 5th Avenue \/ 59th Street (N, R, W); 5th Avenue \/ 53rd Street (E, M); 57th Street (F)<\/p>\n

Admission \u2013 Free!<\/p>\n

Located on the corner of 58th Street and Manhattan\u2019s famed Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman\u2019s is synonymous with New York\u2019s luxury shopping scene. The folks from Bergdorf embrace this reputation wholeheartedly with their celebrated holiday windows, a series of opulent window displays featuring designs customized around an annual theme. 2017 is a particularly special year for Bergdorf Goodman\u2019s as the department store celebrates 125 years on Fifth Avenue by paying homage to some of New York\u2019s most celebrated organizations including the American Museum of Natural History, the New York Philharmonic, the New York Botanical Garden, and plenty more. Plus, when top-shelf displays are right next to world-class shopping, what\u2019s not to love?!<\/p>\n

5. Check Out the New York Botanical Gardens Holiday Train Show<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"Festive

Admission \u2013 From $10 (children) and $23 (adults)<\/p>\n

Occupying 250 acres just north of Fordham University in The Bronx, the New York Botanical Gardens are a beautiful preserve showcasing that New York is more than a skyscraper-filled concrete jungle. Each year between Thanksgiving and mid-January, the Botanical Gardens display its Holiday Train Show, a genuine marvel of human focus, ingenuity, and craftsmanship that can impress adults as easily as it fascinates children! Trains made entirely from natural materials (including bark, minerals, and leaves) are shuttled through miniature models recreating some of New York\u2019s most famous landmarks including the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, and Yankee Stadium!<\/p>\n

6. Treat Yourself to a Schnitzel at Rolf\u2019s German Restaurant<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Subway Station \u2013 23 Street (6)<\/p>\n

Admission \u2013 Depends on how hungry you are!<\/p>\n

Although located in an incredibly posh neighborhood near Gramercy Park, Rolf\u2019s German Restaurant \u2013 with its hunting trophies and expansive mirrors \u2013 seems like it\u2019s pulled right from an Oktoberfest scene where all that matters is good food, good friends, and good cheer. Rolf\u2019s creates a mystical environment during the holidays, decorating its ceilings and walls with so many ornaments, lights, evergreen firs, and pine cones that it\u2019s impossible to tell what the restaurant normally looks like. By the way, the menu \u2013 featuring German classics such as Schnitzel and Bratwurst \u2013 isn\u2019t too shabby, either!<\/p>\n

7. Catch the Rockettes at the Radio City Christmas Spectacular<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"Festive

Admission \u2013 From $67<\/p>\n

Originally founded in St. Louis (fun trivia fact!), the Rockettes have been performing in Manhattan\u2019s Radio City Music Hall for 85 consecutive years. Known for their glistening smiles, precision dancing, and (of course) perfectly synchronized leg-kicks, the Rockettes put their endurance to the test each year, performing five daily shows seven days a week throughout the entire holiday season.<\/p>\n

Though the extended leg-kick ending sequence is a timeless tradition, each year the Rockettes add new Christmas Spectacular wrinkles that have seen them dress as snow, rag dolls, and even toy soldiers!<\/p>\n

8. <\/strong>Follow That Up with Dessert at Milk & Cookies Bakery<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Subway Station \u2013 Christopher Street (1, 2, 3)<\/p>\n

Admission \u2013 Depends on your sweet tooth!<\/p>\n

Known for its festive holiday-themed concoctions, Milk & Cookies Bakery \u2013 already one of New York\u2019s most famous bakeries throughout the year \u2013 turns into an absolute cannot-miss each holiday season. The menu expands far beyond cookies and features delights including make-your-own ice cream sandwiches, fresh gelato, and cupcakes with cookie dough centers. With its West Village location (in one of Manhattan\u2019s hippest neighborhoods), Milk & Cookies is the perfect destination for dates, trips with your parents or children, and everything in between!<\/p>\n

9. See The Nutcracker at Lincoln Center<\/strong><\/h2>\n\"\"\n

Subway Station \u2013 66th Street \/ Lincoln Center (1)<\/p>\n

Admission \u2013 From $78<\/p>\n

Set amid 16 beautifully-designed acres on Manhattan\u2019s Upper West Side, the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts likely features America\u2019s densest collection of world-class artistic talent. Venues include David Geffen Hall (home of the New York Philharmonic), the Metropolitan Opera House, and Alice Tully Hall (concert hall for The Juilliard School). For a classic holiday experience, however, head to the David H. Koch Theater to see the New York City Ballet perform George Balanchine\u2019 stunning choreography set against Tchaikovsky\u2019s brilliant score in The Nutcracker. Like the Rockettes with the Radio City Christmas Spectacular, the New York City Ballet performs The Nutcracker annually between Thanksgiving and New Year\u2019s Eve, but the company always throws in a few surprises to keep the production fresh and exciting!<\/p>\n

10. Have Afternoon Tea in The Plaza Hotel\u2019s Palm Court<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Subway Station \u2013 5th Avenue \/ 59th Street (N, R, W); 5th Avenue \/ 53rd Street (E, M); 57th Street (F)<\/p>\n

Admission \u2013 Depends on how thirsty you are!<\/p>\n

Made famous nationally by the beloved children\u2019s book character Eloise<\/em>, The Plaza Hotel<\/a> has long been among New York\u2019s most treasured landmarks. This becomes especially true during the holidays, when The Plaza spares no expense promoting its shopping, culinary, and charitable activities. Though afternoon tea is served daily in the Palm Court, the Plaza really steps up its game around holiday season \u2013 special tea packages include the New Yorker Tea (highlighted by bagels with lox), the Champagne Tea (thyme roasted prime rib and sandwiches), and, of course, the Children\u2019s Eloise Tea (house made turkey and deviled organic egg)!<\/p>\n

11. All Aboard the Holiday Nostalgia Train<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"Holiday-Things

Subway Station \u2013 2nd Avenue (F)<\/p>\n

Admission \u2013 $2.75 each way<\/p>\n

Five times every Sunday through New Year\u2019s Day, those sleepily waiting for a typical \u201cF\u201d train at Manhattan\u2019s Second Avenue Station will board a pleasant surprise \u2013 the Holiday Nostalgia Train, a subway made from cars that were used from the 1930s through the 1970s. Adorned with wreaths, manual ceiling fans, and padded seats, these vintage subway cars offer \u2013 along with fantastic photograph opportunities \u2013 a surprisingly luxurious ride. Plus, with many of this list\u2019s attractions (including Rockefeller Center, Bergdorf Goodman\u2019s and the Plaza Hotel) lying along the F line, the Holiday Nostalgia Train gets you where you need to go, anyway! Choo Choo!<\/p>\n
