Why should it be part of your tour?
At the heart of Manhattan's tourist core stands the ambitious Rockefeller Center, an iconic complex of buildings that has left an indelible mark on New York's history and culture. Since its opening in 1933, this center has witnessed historic moments and captivated millions of visitors with its stunning architecture and fun activities.
One of the most popular is its famous skating rink. During the months of November through April each year, the square is transformed into a wonderful ice rink that attracts locals and tourists alike. Skating on this iconic rink is a unique and magical experience that imbues you with the New York holiday spirit. Surrounded by twinkling lights and the majesty of skyscrapers, you'll feel like you're in a movie as you glide across the ice or sip a drink overlooking the rink.
Another option for visitors is the famous "Top of the Rock," a 70-story observation deck on the Comcast Building. From here, you can enjoy spectacular panoramic views of the city that never sleeps. The glass elevator takes you quickly to the top, and from there you can admire the vastness of Central Park, the iconic Empire State Building and the imposing One World Trade Center. It's worth it both day and night, and you're allowed to take photos and film.
For those interested in architecture and fashion, the tour of the Rockefeller complex is a fascinating option. In a special circuit explained by experts from the institution, you will have the opportunity to explore the architectural and artistic Art Deco details that make this complex a true treasure of the twentieth century. You will learn about everything from John D. Rockefeller Jr.'s initial vision to its expansion as a cultural center and its proclamation as a U.S. National Heritage Site in 1987.
As the complex features some 20 buildings, in addition to these three highlights Rockefeller Center also offers a wide range of shopping, dining and entertainment options. You can enjoy a delicious meal at one of its restaurants, explore unique stores, stroll through the outdoor gardens and enjoy live entertainment throughout the year.
If you visit New York, Rockefeller Center should be on your list of places to visit. It's a place that combines architectural grandeur with the magic of the activities it offers, and guarantees you an unforgettable experience in the heart of the Big Apple. No matter what time of year you visit, it will welcome you with its charm and unique energy.
