If you camp out in the middle of the plaza and are willing to wait, eventually a giant tree with lights will be constructed before your eyes
Ken CarsonDecember 21, 2010Barbie is a huge fan of the holidays, so of course we made a trip to see the tree and go ice skating. We held hands the entire night, even when we slipped on the ice and fell!

LynnMarch 22, 2017First time here and it was pretty cool. Crowded as I knew it would be, but an experience nonetheless.
Best view in the city cause you're right in the middle so you can see it all!
Nate BennettAugust 15, 2011A must-see wintertime destination with the iconic ice-skating pond. From here you can see and visit Radio City Music Hall and NBC Studios.
One of the greats buildings in NYC... which explains all the tourist. Be ready to push your way around.
Rami JBMay 12, 2016flags and people everywhere. didn't do too much sightseeing here. but the outside was very nice although it was very crowded
Jessica DobyFebruary 17, 2013Ice skating is expensive, about $35. Make sure you walk around and look at all the different flags!
Keep in mind that nearby St. Patrick's usually closes at 8 pm and that a walk to Central Park really isn't that far if you like to walk!
Todd GreeneNovember 27, 2010If your tourist family members force your attendance, make it tolerable by purchasing the HOUSE bouncy ball--the best $9 you can spend in an NYC tourist location
Michelle UrdialesMarch 13, 2012Dinner at Alfredo Italian resto accross the street is wonderful. Delicious pasta and good service.
kira morehouseMarch 6, 2012We had to visit 30 Rock. The highlight of our trip, aside for walking through Times Square.
Pierre ValadeJuly 27, 2011the best place to get a view on NYC. 1000x better than going to the Empire State Building.
Rockefeller CenterNovember 30, 2011You know the holidays have arrived when the tree is lit! Tune in on NBC or catch the #RockCenterXMAS Tree Lighting Ceremony action live TONIGHT in NYC.
Alejandro BejaranoJanuary 8, 2013If you wanna skate don't like getting in lines, get here right after New Year.
