New York is a densely packed mass of humanity and all this living on top of one another makes the New Yorker a special kind of person. It's hard to put a finger on what makes the place buzz so hard, but the city's hyperactive rush keeps drawing more and more people to it.
NEW YORK
● When To Go
If it's first-class international events and gallery openings you're after,
the question is when not to go. Despite the fantastic atmosphere
around Christmas/Hanukkah and the New Year, the weather can be gaspingly
chilly. In summer the prices rise and the tourist numbers soar. It can also
be oppressively hot. Aim for spring (March-June) and fall
(September-November).
