Insider tip on Times Square

In the evening, we returned to Times Square to enjoy its unique atmosphere, illuminating the New York night. Times Square is the symbol of the cultural and commercial dynamism of New York. It was in 1904 that the avenue took this name, in reference to the headquarters of the New York Times newspaper, which settled there that year.

How to describe Times Square? But do we really need to describe Times Square anyway? 😀 The superstar of New York, the one you have to walk through in length, width, and breadth, in the morning, afternoon, and night. Don't hesitate to stop for a moment to take in the scale of the place!

Arriving at Times Square, one of the most famous intersections in the world, we were immediately captivated by the enormous bright advertising billboards and the incessant hustle and bustle.

Gigantic, impressive, a bit kitschy, overstated but grand.

The first time you discover this street, the energy and the lights of the billboards are unique. It reminds you of the bustling crossroads of Japan. Few places in the world offer such an impressive atmosphere.

Before you leave, you can head to a rooftop overlooking the avenue to soak in the vibrancy of New York one last time.
