Spending Thanksgiving in New York
When we think of New York, mythical places always come to mind, such as the Statue of Liberty or the Empire State Building.
But if there is a moment that attracts attention, it is Thanksgiving or also known as Thanksgiving in English, which is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. Surely more than once you’ve seen it in a movie and you’ve always wondered what it would be like to be in New York at that time.
If you want to spend a unique Thanksgiving, you can’t miss the famous Macy’s parade. It is an annual parade organized by the store of the same name that has been active since 1924. There are 4 km where giant and floating balloons go down the street along with other children and adults who parade dressed especially for the occasion. The idea is that it is a party for the whole family, so if you travel with children to New York they will have a great time.
Although the Macy’s parade is the great attraction, there are other types of activities that you can do in New York, such as taking the opportunity to visit the Empire State viewpoint or the Top of the Rock. The interesting thing is that from there you can also see the parade with what will be two visits in one.
As you well know, New York receives tourists throughout the year, so that you do not have to wait for your ticket, it is best to get a card like the New York CityPASS for both you and your children. With it you can enjoy the 6 best attractions in the city with a single ticket, which allows you to save up to 40% of what you would spend buying tickets individually.
The Statue of Liberty, the Metropolitan Museum of Art or the Guggenheim Museum are some of the other perfect attractions to enjoy during your Thanksgiving stay in New York. Both are included in the New York CityPASS card, so you have one more reason to take advantage of it.
A no less important fact: the next day is the day known as “Black Friday”, where stores have exorbitant discounts, so take the opportunity to join a unique and emblematic party around the world.
