Bryant Park

This is a beautiful park which we should visit twice, one during Christmas or Winter and other during summer or fall colors. In winter we can see the beautiful Winter Village with so many lights, ice skating rink and many other winter vendors, where as in summer the ice rink disappears with vast green grasslands with picnic spots and the lively trees that provide ample shade. Round the year we will find so many vendors selling different types of tasty snacks. This is a must visit walkable place from One Times Square or Rockefeller Center.

This is a park that surrounds the exterior of the New York Public Library. It's a great place to sit and we did on several mornings of our holiday when we grabbed breakfast. It's clean and had loads of chairs and tables available so there should usually be a place to sit. Great for people or traffic watching.

Great place to get in the holiday spirit. There is an outdoor skating rink, a massive Christmas Tree, beautiful little Christmas Market Stands, eateries and a great rink side bar with hot toddies. We also loved the little geodesic domes, we saw a couple having a picnic in one of them! So charming and romantic.
