I love New York City. But to be honest, I didn’t love it at first. I was overwhelmed with the big city but once I got to know it better, I fell for its charm and energy.

There are million things to do in NYC but as a first time visitor there are some things you just HAVE to do. Here is what I would do, see & eat as a first time visitor to the Big Apple.

Duration- I would recommend 5 days or more in NYC. I also highly recommend adding a day to explore upstate New York for a nice break from the city.

When to go?

Personally I love New York during the fall. But each season has its moments. Winter has all of the Christmas market’s & decorations and then spring & summer can also be lovely. I would avoid it during February and March.
