Activities You Can Indulge in with Cheap New York Holidays

by Amanda Sutcliffe Travel Deals

An exciting mix of towering skyscrapers, iconic landmarks, and a cosmopolitan atmosphere, New York would surely delight you with its diverse offerings. This American city is often described as the financial, cultural, and media capital of the world. You'll certainly get the chance to enjoy diverse shopping and dining experiences while holidaying in the city, as it has the world's largest foreign-born population. People of more than 200 nationalities have contributed immensely to the development of New York. As a result, it has emerged as a shining example of social tolerance, creativity, and entrepreneurship over the years.

 

If you wish to have cheap New York holidays, plan your trip towards the end of the winter season. Hotel accommodations in December and early January would be quite expensive. However, the hotels in the city would be quite forthcoming in slashing their room rates in late January and February. Spring from March to May has pleasant weather with occasional showers. The accommodation costs continue to remain steady until the end of the summer season in August. The best time to visit New York in terms of weather is during autumn, which begins in the month of September and lasts until November. Although the hotel stays are quite expensive during this time of the year, you can surely get some attractive deals upon booking well in advance.

 

There are some wonderful things in store for you during your New York holidays, which can be enjoyed for free. One of them is a visit to the Museum of Modern Art. Visitors to this museum usually have to pay a certain amount for getting an entry, but the museum doesn't charge anything on Fridays between 4 pm and 8 pm. If you wish to visit the sculpture garden, the entry is free every morning between 9:30 pm and 10 pm. In the afternoons during weekdays, you can head to the Federal Bank of New York to witness over 6,000 tonnes of gold in its vault upon signing up for a free tour.

 

During your New York holidays, you can get the chance to escape the bustling crowds of the city and enjoy some peaceful environs at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden without paying anything on a Tuesday. The admission fee of this garden is waived on this day of the week. It would allow you to visit the park's zoo, the LeFrak Center, and the Lefferts Historic House. You can also get to Harlem to explore Hamilton Grange, which is believed to be the only house of Alexander Hamilton, who was one of USA's founding fathers.

 

While in the city, you’ll also get to visit the New York Earth Room and Broken Kilometer, which were created by Walter De Maria in the 1970s. He was an American sculptor, artist, illustrator, and composer. Both of these art installations are located in SoHo, a neighbourhood located in Lower Manhattan. During the summer season, Bryant Park becomes one of the liveliest spots in New York with many free activities conducted throughout the day. Among them are free yoga classes, which you can take on Tuesday mornings at 10:00 or Thursday evenings at 6:00.
