Rockefeller Center and the Top of the Rock. When to go up?
One of the most emblematic and visited places in New York is the Rockefeller Center, a complex of 19 buildings built by the Rockefeller family and located near Fifth Avenue between 48th and 51st streets.
Its main building is the General Electric building where the famous Top of The Rock viewpoint is located, the most famous in New York, next to the Empire State Building.
In addition to the gazebo, there are also numerous shops and theaters such as the famous Radio City Music Hall.
Rockefeller Plaza
This is the central square of the complex, very famous for having appeared in numerous films.
In this impressive square, located between the immense skyscrapers of the complex, we can find the Statue of Prometheus, a golden statue located above the central fountain.
Rockefeller Plaza is also known for becoming a busy ice rink in winter where you can skate next to the famous Christmas tree.
If you visit New York at this time, you will love this square. The Lego store is also not to be missed.
Top of the Rock Lookout. when to upload
The Top of the Rock Observation Deck is located on the 70th floor of the General Electric Building, an Art Deco style and home to the main television network in the United States, NBC.
Since 2005, when it was opened, it has been one of the favorite vantage points for visitors due to its great views of Central Park and the Empire State Building.
Many consider the views from the Top of the Rock to be better than the Empire for this reason.
As with the climb to the Empire, we recommend going up at sunset and staying until dark to see New York illuminated as well.
The tickets have a time that you must respect scrupulously, so be well decided when you want to upload so as not to have any setbacks.
