NEW YORK CITY - MANHATTAN
Best Time to Go & Visit & Travel to New York City -
Manhattan
Yes. New York isn’t only Manhattan. It's also Brooklyn, Queens,
the Bronx and Staten Inland.
Besides New York is also the capital of a large state that
includes destinations and places as
Long Island, the
Niagara Falls, the
Hudson Valley and the Catskills
or the Adirondacks Mountains...
But Manhattan is really New York City's
heart: the heart of a celebrated architecture and of many
exceptional museums and all types of dance, theatre, music and
other arts; the heart of American financial district; the heart of
all imaginable types of eating and drinking at any time of day; the heart of shopping...

BEST TIME TO TRAVEL & VISIT NEW YORK CITY
New York weather is
very changeable with moderate precipitation all over the year,
and some heat waves in summer and very cool weather in winter
and even in the early spring. Snow is obviously concentrated in
winter months, but not precipitation
If we only consider the weather issue, then the best time to
visit New York is undoubtedly spring - April, May, June – or
late-summer and early-fall – September, October, when Central
Park becomes magical…
But… there are, of course, other issues when equating a visit to
New York. And so it all
depends on what you value most. For some people there is nothing
like Christmas time to experience Times Square, the Rockefeller
Center, the city’s shopping ambiance.
WHEN NOT TO GO TO
NEW YORK CITY
For many people summer should be avoided. Humidity and high
temperatures may turn July and August very uncomfortable months.
But, contradictory, these are also the most visited months for
New York...
