    I loved going to Time Square at night. It was really nice and everyone was doing their own thing, lots of people there but there were no issues or trouble. There are lots of cool stores to shop at, lots of eateries even off the main streets. There were people out there Performing and so much to see and do. Everyone was happy and the vibe was good. I do highly recommend going to Time Square at night!!! The lights and screens on the buildings are so colorful and huge, it's a sight to see!!!

    Amazing site to see, since I'm not from an area like this. The buildings were massive, and beautiful. Going to the top of the Empire State Building was an amazing experience that everyone should see. Taking the Sub-train was a fun experience. Definitely a place worth seeing.. Go and get the full experience! It's worth it!

    My first visit to Times square and it was bustling, busy, full of people, and I must have heard no less than 10 different languages being spoken within a three block radius. Everyone was happy, and a good place, the street performers were entertaining, the general vibe was just one of happiness. I think people really sincerely just happy to be out again without their masks.

    It's one of the most happening places in New York City. No matter it rains or shines you'll have a memorable experience visiting this spot. A must visit spot for all visitors of New York, it's well connected by the subway and other public transit like bus and cabs. Getting a parking spot is tricky so commuting on public transport is better.

    They quote New York as โ€œThe City Never Sleepsโ€. This can be understood in real if someone visit Times Square. Maybe the shops are closed but yet they are well lit and there are people on the street every now and then.

    Charging emotions! We are surprised to be in this famous square! You look around and the movement of vehicles and pedestrians is incredible (all day and night). All this energy that the square has is impressive. A huge number of people pass through here every day. From all over the world! Everyone stops here to take photos and videos of the brightest buildings in the world! The whole city is a spectacle. Pleasant, kind and willing people work here, and they are ready to help you.

    Time Square on the eve of New Years Eve. Full NYE energy in the air. Busy but easy to find food, beverages, plenty of trash cans and overall flow to move around. Know in advance this is one of the busiest places in the country. Be smart. Be safe. Enjoy the experience.

  • 5/5 Rezeki 2 years ago on Google
    One of the most popular spots in NYC. The vibes and the atmosphere are amazing. Got to see some street performances which drew in huge crowds to see it. Nice place if you like crowds and tall buildings with dazzling billboards. Amazing view at night. Itโ€™s kind of place where all advertisement LED screens are placed all around and that looks amazing. Going at night is the best and especially at midnight where all the electronic signs perform a spectacular light show.

    Times Square is an electrifying experience, pulsating with the energy of the city that never sleeps. The iconic billboards, bustling crowds, and vibrant atmosphere make it a must-visit destination for anyone in New York City. The dazzling lights, Broadway shows, and plethora of shops and restaurants create an unforgettable spectacle. However, it can get incredibly crowded, so be prepared for that. Overall, a quintessential NYC experience that's a feast for the senses.

  • 5/5 Abraao M. 4 months ago on Google โ€ข 194 reviews
    Times Square is a vibrant and iconic hub in the heart of New York City. Known for its dazzling lights, towering billboards, and bustling atmosphere, it epitomizes the energy of the city that never sleeps. The area is a major entertainment and commercial center, offering a plethora of theaters, shops, and restaurants. While its lively ambiance is a magnet for tourists, some may find it overwhelmingly crowded. Despite this, the sheer spectacle of Times Square, especially at night, creates a memorable and quintessential New York experience.

    This is definitely the hearth and would of the city! If you are in New York, you have to go to Times Square, no doubts about it ๐Ÿ˜ This is the place that concentrates one of the world most famous advertising spots, ads and news! The feeling of just walking in this area is amazing and itโ€™s free ๐Ÿ˜‚ This place has been the background and stage of many movies, famous events, concerts, etc. There are plenty of options for shopping, eating and drinking. There are many theaters and attractions just concentrated in these few blocks. Last but not least, if you are in New York in late December you should consider attend to the most famous New Yearโ€™s Eve celebrationโ€ฆ obviously in Times Square! ๐Ÿ‘

    Very fun just to walk and check it out thereโ€™s vendors and lots of photo opportunities. Be careful the โ€œprofessional โ€œ photographer out there selling pics will definitely try & block your own nice photos so you can buy from them but other than that I respect the hustle and it was a great time.

    Great tourist location, plenty of eateries in the area, stores, public transportation and Broadway Theaters. USA largest public library, NY Bus Port Authority nearby as well as short walk to Amtrak NY Penn Station, Grand Central Station MSG and High Rise building the "EDGE".

    Visit to New York was a lot of fun. We enjoyed spending a lovely early evening at the Times Square. The place was bustling with people and the billboards were colorful. We enjoyed shopping and having some nice food and drinks. Would love to visit the big Apple once itโ€™s safe to travel.

    Times Square is a major commercial intersection, tourist destination, entertainment center, and neighborhood in the Midtown Manhattan section of New York City, at the junction of Broadway and Seventh Avenue. Brightly lit by numerous billboards and advertisements, it stretches from West 42nd to West 47th Streets, and is sometimes referred to as "the Crossroads of the World", "the Center of the Universe", "the heart of the Great White Way", and "the heart of the world". One of the world's busiest pedestrian areas, it is also the hub of the Broadway Theater District and a major center of the world's entertainment industry. Times Square is one of the world's most visited tourist attractions, drawing an estimated 50 million visitors annually. Approximately 330,000 people pass through Times Square daily, many of them tourists, while over 460,000 pedestrians walk through Times Square on its busiest days. Formerly known as Longacre Square, Times Square was renamed in 1904 after The New York Times moved its headquarters to the then newly erected Times Building, now One Times Square. It is the site of the annual New Year's Eve ball drop, which began on December 31, 1907 and continues to attract over a million visitors to Times Square every year. Times Square functions as a town square, but is not geometrically a square; it is closer in shape to a bowtie, with two triangles emanating roughly north and south from 45th Street, where Seventh Avenue intersects Broadway. Broadway runs diagonally, crossing through the horizontal and vertical street grid of Manhattan laid down by the Commissioners' Plan of 1811, and that intersection creates the "bowtie" shape of Times Square. The southern triangle of Times Square has no specific name, but the northern triangle is officially Duffy Square. It was dedicated in 1937 to World War I chaplain Father Francis P. Duffy of New York City's U.S. 69th Infantry Regiment and is the site of a memorial to him. There is also a statue of composer and entertainer George M. Cohan, and the TKTS ticket booth for Broadway theaters. When Manhattan Island was first settled by the Dutch, three small streams united near what is now 10th Avenue and 40th Street. These three streams formed the "Great Kill" (Dutch: Grote Kil). From there the Great Kill wound through the low-lying Reed Valley, known for fish and waterfowl and emptied into a deep bay in the Hudson River at the present 42nd Street. The name was retained in a tiny hamlet, Great Kill, that became a center for carriage making, as the upland to the south and east became known as Longacre.

    A definite must-do for tourists; it is iconic for a reason. The square is essentially a big outdoor mall, surrounded by major retailers like Sephora, M&M world, Forever 21, Line Friends, Disney, etc with countless TV billboards on the buildings. There are food vendors all around. It is surprisingly kept relatively clean. The lights make it very exciting especially at night

    I just had to reach out and tell you how much I resonate with my love for New York City, especially Times Square. It truly is a place like no other! From the moment you step into Times Square, whether it's in the morning or at night, itโ€™s immediately enveloped by the electric energy and the sheer craziness of it all. The vibrant lights, the bustling crowds, it's a sensory overload in the best way There's something about being in the heart of New York that fills you with a sense of awe and inspiration. It's a place where dreams come alive, and possibilities seem endless. And let's not forget about all the amazing things you can do in Times Square. Whether it's shopping till you drop, finding hidden gems in the restaurants, or simply taking in the sights and sounds while capturing breathtaking images and videos, there's always something exciting happening around every corner. Until then, hold on to those incredible memories and keep that positive New York spirit alive wherever i go.

  • 4/5 L M. 3 years ago on Google
    When I first arrived to the city, the lights and colors of time square were overwhelming. There is a lot going on at once here. This may sound naive, but before visiting nyc I didnโ€™t realize how almost exclusively touristy this part of town is. I mean, itโ€™s all still very cool to see and be around. At night, the scene looks very futuristic. You feel like youโ€™re in a movie set in 2050 or something. Maybe this is obvious for most readers, but there arenโ€™t really local restaurants/bars/shops in Times Square. Itโ€™s all chain stuff. Definitely worth seeing and exploring. You are close to so many other cool parts of the city too. Just be careful and donโ€™t go on one of those bike tours... donโ€™t let them talk you into it. I was charged around $60 for about an 8 minute right (misunderstanding, I thought he said he was not going to charge me). I guess that was my naivety and I had to learn the hard way!

    It's just fun sitting and watching all the ads running around. Great atmosphere. People are happy and friendly. If you take a picture of someone dressed up as something then expected to give them a tip. It's not free. Plenty of shops and restaurants around.

    It's not called the Big Apple for nothing. Craziness, coolers city on earth! This was 2019 Pre- Covid. Times Square doesn't sleep and you can see why. It keeps on keeping on. The billboards, the lights, the yellow Cabs, the honking, the street food, the random helpful stranger, the hot friendly girl, the shade from the skyscrapers, the Disney store and lion King poster next door. The traffic lights and quickly walking tourist and locals, NYC is the best, and I miss it. Thank you for showing this Bajan a great time. Love you New York!

    So much changing since the last time we came here before moved to another city. Some place will asking for your immunization card to be able eating inside. Beware of the CBD smell. Some still wearing mask and many not. For the security made me feel safe because I see plenty of the officers.

    Time square is beautiful! A lot of walking is required and I would advise to carry water although you can pretty much by food and drink every 300 feet with all the stores and food trucks around. You will find alot of seats in certain places as well. Definitely a beautiful experience and you will no doubt have a good time if you visit.

    Very popular location, and very interesting to experience. An incredibly iconic place. The ball where the ball drop is, is a little underwhelming though. I recommend going here at night, it's stunning. A fun game to play: challenge your friends and family to see who can find a coca cola ad first!

    Being from Southern California I've traveled to other places in the U.S. and the world but I had yet to make to the East Coast. Well I was able to check that off the old bucket list and traveled to New York this past year for Christmas and I'd like to say that I LOVED it!!!...the city is beautiful and that SKYLINE is unlike anything I had ever seen...and the people were absolutely awesome...a few stepped in to help with directions when we were trying to figure out their subway system. There are so many places to see and do. From going up to the 86th floor of the empire state building at night to walking through central park. Just an overall 10 out of 10!!!

    Times Square has a three minute light show every night starting at 11:57 PM. I took my daughter to see it on our visit to Manhattan. It was alright. Aside from that, we shopped in the area. She liked Sephora. There was a Hershey's chocolate store that looked interesting. The Lego store, a bit outside of Times Square was very impressive.

  • 5/5 Abhishek k. 3 years ago on Google
    It's wonderful the energy is high, there is always a crowd and it has all of the things you hear NYC has. Lights, tons of advertisements, MTV studios along with hundreds of other famous companies you see on TV, all trying to compete for your attention. Broadway show signs, Coke ads, museums and restaurants. When you go, you can't help but look up instead of what's right in front of you. Which is usual walking.

You will be amazed to see lights, peopleโ€™s energy, food, drinks, chocolatiers, shopping stores right across times square ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰. If you ever find yourself bored, tired or taken down in life make sure to come here and get all the worldโ€™s positivity.

  • 5/5 Syeda F. 3 years ago on Google
    This place is magic!!! Its beautiful, the crowd, the environment, the buildings, the lights it will take u by, Its surreal. If you happen yo visit during the day, stay for some time and do visit during the night. You have to visit times square if you want to see US in a nutshell. Things to keep in mind, ready to walk. If you have kids grab a stroller for each under the age of 4. Have your cameras fully charged. Parking is a key thing here, we were lucky to get a parking in the time square lane. We went during the covid times in Dec. But generally book your parking and send the address to ur phone just not to get lost. Do grab quick bite and restrooms are way too far. Plan for restroom breaks before you enter downtown. Follow this and Thank me later. Its better to have a pair of jacket with hoodie incase its windy.

    Time Square is just the Big Apple at its finest. Even in the middle of a pandemic the city charged on feverishly. It's bright, it's boisterous, it is unapologetically American cosmopolitan.

    Stopped in Times Square and saw so many sites! The lights, the stores, the vendors, the non-stop activity was fantastic to be a part of even if only for a minute. Went through the M&M store and later saw a video with dancers being filmed while in the plaza passing through. So much to see, eat do and take in. Canโ€™t wait to come back to see a show one day.

    My favourite place in New York city to be at any time of the year, summer winter, spring or fall. It's the intersection of the world, you can see people of every ethnicity, class and creed converged into one space. Truly a culture shock Everytime. Bright lights dominates the streets day and especially at night. Food and from the vendors is good. Be entertained by costumed characters that can be found everywhere in time's square Manhattan. Such a great place I love it!

    As NYC continues to get back on its feet with re-openings, the very popular Times Square area is bustling with traveling crowds. Some businesses remain shuttered, and others are striving to 'return to normal'. Take-out currently replaces most dine-in, and most entertainment venues are still closed (including TKTS). Access readily available through variety of subway trains.

    Ok - so everyone should absolutely experience NYC as a right of passage if nothing else. But, it's just not for me. Dirty, stinks, homeless everywhere, people puking right beside you. But, I am not a city girl and I know that. I'm used to my space and not so many people. It's an experience to be sure, just one best in small doses in my personal opinion.

    Of course we all know it's a must on your visit to NYC. Day or night it's always exciting but night to get the full effect of all the lights and excitement. Street entertainment, costume super heroes, (these people are here for tips so if you take a picture with them or watch a small show on the streets, they're wanting to make money) plenty of shopping and food choices.

    Time Square is a must see while in NYC. There is something for everyone and plenty of places to eat or get a drink. The street performers make the walk well worth it and interact with the crowd. The atmosphere is like no other on this side of the country and always enjoy heading out while I am in town.

    The heart of NY! Almost it's on everyone's bucket list when people visit NY/ USA. I also love this place when it's less crowded. A good place to hang out with friends.

    We visited New York over the New Years period so it changed daily with the barriers etc running up to NYE. Itโ€™s a busy place throughout most of the day and on New Years Eve it becomes totally locked down. Expert tip, if you want to get close to Times Square on New Years Eve, book a restaurant or bar or hotel in Times Square so the police will let you in :) We booked to go to Connleyโ€™s and stayed inside until 11.45pm. Although we couldnโ€™t get any closer as the police still stop you, just after midnight they let you in. Itโ€™s a fantastic place to visit and certainly one I wonโ€™t forgot as lots to see and do. If you go around 5 to 6am in the morning itโ€™s usually not as busy.

    Wonderful experience in the iconic place! Despite the chill weather, the place was buzzing with activity. Giant size live screens, vibrant colours around and cartoon characters entertaining the kids, there were so many photo ops. Very sad that we missed Maestro Ilayaraja on the giant screens by just a day๐Ÿ˜”

    Times Square is all you expect it to be. Busy, bustling and ballsy!!! Loved every minute felt safe and actually chatted to many other visitors. It was amazing. The only thing that let it down on this visit were the "weed" vans which park and sell their goods. This seems to invite some unsavoury customers???

    What can I say is times square. There's a lot to offer here so whatever your flavor is whatever you're looking for you find it down here. Now of course there's always going to be that one just looking for something that's not there but I would say 99.9% of people who will find it. As you can see from the pictures as there's a lot there but also a lot of family stuff but there's a lot of adult things so be careful what you see. From the silent trailer it's all of you thank you.

    A great spot to see at least once in your life. The street is constantly bustling, and there are a number of shops, restaurants, bars, hotels and theatres to keep you busy. It is central which makes getting to central park, or finding a close metro station easy. Its especially nice to see all lit up at night. There are scammers on the streets, so make sure to always stay wary of your surroundings.

    iconic place that you definitely shouldn't miss if it's your first time in NYC. But be aware of how chaotic this is. a lot of people, TONS of people in costumes and bus tours trying to scam you, an overwhelming place overall. but it is amazing and has all its magic like in the movies.

    Times Square, located in the heart of Manhattan, is a bustling, iconic destination that truly never sleeps. The dazzling lights, massive digital billboards, and vibrant energy make it a must-visit spot. Whether you're drawn to the Broadway theaters, eclectic shops, or diverse eateries, Times Square offers a sensory overload of entertainment. The atmosphere is electric, especially at night, with street performers adding to the excitement. However, the crowds can be overwhelming, and prices at some establishments are steep. Overall, if you're seeking a quintessential New York experience, Times Square delivers, but be prepared for the hustle and bustle.

    (Translated by Google) The atmosphere of this place is surreal. In spite of all that one can read and see, one has to live it to realize.

Best being Olive Garden for ITALIAN Cuisine, Krispy Kreme for fresh hot DONUTS and Herseyโ€™s for HOT CHOCOLATE in New York Cityโ€™s freezing cold weather.

    There is so much to see in NYC and times Square is one of the places to see if your a first time tourist but don't waste all your time there, don't be afraid to use the subway and see the rest of the City. Use Google maps and you can use the subway easily. Eat at Tony's, chicken Alfredo while your there. Stay at Luma hotel, nice and affordable, easy access to everything. They staff is amazing and makes the stay the best.

    NYC was definitely lit!!! Great experience staying at a Hotel for a few days in Time Square, walking around in Time Square, at Central Park, and Brooklyn Bridge. I've been there plenty of times for day trips. 3 weeks ago and yesterday was my first time experiences the night life. It rained two times I was there and it was no fun! :-( I must mentioned about the changes that occurred over the last few weeks since last my visit. When I was there on yesterday most places are now checking vaccination cards and temp checks. Must wear a mask as well. None of that was happening just 21/2 weeks ago. I was going to Madame Tussauds and they are checking vaccination cards. :-( I could get in but not the person I was with so I end up not visited the museum. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

    Best thing to do @ Time Square is people watch - a psychedelic hotch potch of every imaginable variety of humen being in infinite posture, color, emotion interacting with lights, billboards, traffic, noise and inner lonelyness. This is not real America, (may be representative of NewYork City)but this is the image world takes for America. Street portrait artist, sculpturist's work are good value to take something home. Compare to pre-covid days you can see sign of detoriation but this place is perpetual flux regeneration, replacement and replanishment happens here simultaneously.

    The kids and I have such an amazing time at the tree lighting ceremony in Times Square. The place was so lit up with people from all cultures and places. Itโ€™s sooooo much things to do and experience with all proper protocols implemented. We had such a great time eating street food, watching the street performers had us all laughing.Times is really the heart of New York City and I am so happy to have my kids experience the same joy that was once felt my me as a kids growing up in the Big Apple. We was so blown away by being featured on FOX NEWS, wow in a New York minute our lives change. I canโ€™t wait to go back and take the kids ice skating. Overall we can say โ€œWE LOVE NEW YORKโ€

    Even though the locals might tell you to stay away, don't listen to that. Times Square is a must visit and the most iconic place in New York City.

    this place is sign of New York, it is the main attraction of the New York, it is located at 42nd and 43rd st, the buildings have lights and billboards made of LED screens. recently there is a trend going that at 11:52 all the screens go in same pattern and the music plays. first it was solid colors and later it turned to birds art. there is a ball drop and concert on 31st December. the place gets really crowded so have to reach really early. has a lot of stores almost can find all brands here and there are red stairs where you can go till the end and see the whole area looks really beautiful at night. must visit if you are visiting New York.

    NYC is a place we all should visit. Great restaurants, Broadway shows, spectacular architecture, museums and so much more. Most people walk to get around but there are cabs, subways, buses and Ubers. Now that the holiday is around the corner, check out the Christmas tree at the Rockefeller Center, go see the Rockettes at the Radio City Music Hall, the beautiful holiday store displays, St Patrick Cathedral or just try some street food. Go ahead and plan your trip & enjoy this beautiful city that has so much to offer.

There's so much to do and see in Times Square, from world-class restaurants to amazing Broadway shows. Whether you're looking for a great meal, some shopping, or just a fun night out, you'll find it all here. Plus, the area is incredibly safe, and there's always a ton of security around to make sure everyone stays protected. Overall, I can't recommend Times Square enough. It's truly one of the most iconic destinations in the world, and an experience that you'll remember for a lifetime.

    As one of the busiest and most iconic areas of New York City, Times Square is a must-visit destination for any traveler. And in the Fall season, it takes on a special ambiance that is truly magical. When visiting Times Square in the Fall, the first thing that you'll notice is the beautiful foliage that lines the streets leading up to the square. The warm colors of the leaves, combined with the bright lights and flashing screens of the surrounding billboards, create a unique contrast that is both beautiful and mesmerizing. The atmosphere is lively, and there's always something happening in Times Square. From street performers to live music events, there's never a dull moment. It's an ideal place to people watch and take in the city's vibrant energy. One of the best things about Times Square in the Fall is that the weather is usually mild, making it perfect for a leisurely stroll. You can take your time wandering through the various shops and restaurants or simply enjoy the sights and sounds of the bustling city around you. If you're looking for a place to grab a bite to eat, you'll find plenty of options in Times Square. From classic New York-style pizza to trendy fusion restaurants, there's something for everyone. A visit to Times Square in the Fall is an experience that shouldn't be missed. The beautiful foliage, lively atmosphere, and endless entertainment options make it a must-visit destination for any traveler to New York City.

    Other reviews claim that Times Square closes early, but we got there around 11:30, and that was not the case. Vendors were barely setting up at that time. There were street performers and shows everywhere! I would suggest to not drive there because the traffic is horrible! Other than that, it was beautiful and full of people! Check it out :)

    Another one of the iconic, must sees in NYC. Billboards light up the night from every direction. Must see at night!! Also the entertainers and performers all come out at night and the people watching is great. You don't need to stay here real long but have to come by here at lazy once or twice.

    Times Square is a tourist venue that everyone must visit in their lifetime. After you experience it, you will be satisfied and will probably not have a desire to go back. Going to see it comes with different suggestions than if you are going to experience it. If you just want to see it, go on a weekday night. You get to see all the lights and crowds of people, as well as go to shows and shop. On weekdays, it seemed like things were a little less expensive. Maybe they have more sales to bring in people on these days. You will probably encounter street performers, but they arenโ€™t as pushy on weekdays. If you want to experience it, I recommend going on a Friday or Saturday night. The crowds are larger, the shows have their A list actors but are more expensive, and the street performers will all but push you into a photo and then tell you its $20.

It was a destination, I arrived, and quite frankly, the ambiance in the wee hours of the morning rival its known busyness of its day. A Marketing Wonder to be sure, the lights of the billboards and all enticing g you with a promise of the feelings the products they display can inspire. Enjoy the experience!

    Times Square didn't live up to the hype for me. It was absolutely jam-packed with scammers trying to hand me things, sell me things... It's too bad really. Cool spot to see but not a great use of time when there are so many other great NYC experiences.

    It's Times Square, will take your breath away. Plenty of shops and cafes, with quite a few convenient stores. Well served by all transportation, and very good Wifi. Tourist traps - CD selling rappers, Monks Chinatown is built up so no temple. Guys claim to be collecting for the homeless with lunchboxes, will take the cash and go to a fast-food place with the money. Plenty of fast-food places open 24hrs, if you get back late. Can get crowded, but two streets over they disappear.

    Great city. Some of the people are very rude, so be prepared! It was very expensive but worth every penny. You appreciate that Britain isn't that expensive in comparison.

Great selection of shops, restaurants and bars too. Maybe too many random people approaching you asking you to buy stuff for my liking, and who were quite persistent, but that was my only gripe.

    If you wanna see big led screens and lots of lights or the busiest place in New york, this is your place! Some street performances and a few food carts are available too. Youโ€™ve gotta experience the craziness here

    I went at midnight, and it was very busy and bright. I felt like I was in a movie! It was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but I'm not sure if I would go back again. It was just a bit too much for me. On the one hand, Times Square is amazing. It's so iconic and there's so much to see and do. I loved seeing the bright lights, the big billboards, and all the people. I also really enjoyed seeing the street performers. On the other hand, Times Square can also be overwhelming. It's so crowded and noisy, and it's hard to get around. I also felt a bit pressured to buy things from the street vendors. Overall, I'm glad I experienced Times Square once. But I'm not sure if it's a place I would go back to regularly. Here are some tips for anyone visiting Times Square: Go at night to see the lights! Wear comfortable shoes, because you'll be doing a lot of walking. Be prepared for crowds and noise. Be aware of your surroundings and keep an eye on your belongings. Don't feel pressured to buy anything from the street vendors. If you're looking for a more relaxed experience, I would recommend visiting Times Square during the day or at off-peak times.

    Obviously its best and all but you have to be energized and active to be here. Itโ€™s not like you can just go and sit which is highly impossible. Its packed all the time, as everyone says - NEW YORK NEVER SLEEPS - it doesnโ€™t guys. Plan it better, go for Joeโ€™s pizza and Adeleโ€™s halal as soon as you reach there. People say its not but it is totally worth the two hr waiting time for Adele Halal. Also the Artichokeโ€™s crab pizza dude I loved it.

    Great for photos, shops and atmosphere. It wasn't very loud and I enjoyed myself, however if you aren't fond of crowds this probably isn't the place to go. You have to keep your wits about you and you'll be fine.

    My time at Times Square was an electrifying immersion into the heart of New York City's vibrant energy. The dazzling lights, colossal digital billboards, and bustling crowds created an atmosphere unlike any other. Amid the iconic landmarks, I felt a palpable sense of excitement and wonder. The kaleidoscope of colors and the constant buzz of activity painted a vivid picture of urban dynamism. Whether indulging in world-class shopping, savoring diverse cuisines, or simply people-watching, every moment was a sensory feast. Times Square's unmistakable charm and ceaseless liveliness left an indelible imprint, embodying the essence of the city that never sleeps.

    I grew up here, and still, I love the lights and everything about NYC. Nowadays, it seems like more people are out, then what pictures from back in the early 90s and 2000s show. Crowds of people are out and about in Times Square, and still love it.

    It is an impressive place with so many screens. They only advertise. People dressed up in costumes to take pictures. and people doing tricks and juggling. They have a lot of stores of souvenirs. Food Stan, they sell hot dogs ๐ŸŒญ๐Ÿ—๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ– Everything is expensive, $$$. So be prepared. Have and just here fun.

    The tourist magnet of New York City! Lots of fun to visit, visually stunning with all the digital advertising on the buildings. Lots of shopping and some chain restaurants as well as food carts. Lots of good smells and happy people looking around in wonder. I fully enjoyed myself.

  • 5/5 Serena S. 5 months ago on Google
    Wow! Visiting New York for the first time I had to go visit Times Square at night.... and I wasn't disappointed. Bright, colourful, busy, full of life, loved it!

  • 5/5 Ivan T. 6 months ago on Google
    I actually enjoyed Time Square! The amount of people walking around there reminded me of Seoul S Korea. I couldn't believe all the different performers that were around there doing their acts. Some were very good, some were gross and not worth seeing or hearing. What surprised me the most is how actually polite most people were as crowded as it was. After being there, I can see why people like going there!!!

  • 4/5 Tolga 5 months ago on Google
    Iconic spot of New York City, plethora of people and characters. Still the quality of the squareโ€™s design and architecture is missing compared to European squares. Full of hustle and bustle ๐Ÿ‘ฏyou should be careful not to get hit by a car around.

  • 5/5 Midas M. 5 months ago on Google
    I love NY. It was an amazing experience. Ground Zero I would definitely recommend. Itโ€™s hard not to cry. All the historical landmarks makes a dream come true. Iโ€™m a country boy at heart. Now Iโ€™ve feel in love with Big lights. To be here. Itโ€™s like being in the center of the Universe.

    Excellent vibrant location day and night. Basically, as more happening Leicester Square. Lots of shops, restaurants etc... Safe to walk down and near tube stations. We stayed at the Manhattan Club hotel which was a 5 minute walk from Time Square. Lots of bright TV screens advertising big brands and amazing location for Instagram pics. Highly recommended a visit.

  • 5/5 Jerome D. 5 months ago on Google
    Absolutely a great time. It is unlike any other place. Food, shopping, taking pictures, etc. We would come out of our hotel on Times Square and just walk around. We are going back.

  • 4/5 Adrian H. 5 months ago on Google
    Gotta go if you're a visitor in New York City right? There's an energy and beat to the place. Lots and lots of people, even late into the night. That said, if it is late at night, do take precautions to be safe. One Taco Bell had to keep its extra alcohol locked in a metal cabinet, what does that tell you?

  • 4/5 Mitch 5 months ago on Google
    Times square was pretty wild. My wife got sucked by dressed up furry characters for taking a picture and when I didn't tip them they called me stingy. We told them no three times so I will own being stingy. Everything was super bright and busy. Definitely worth the stop after seeing Hamilton.

  • 5/5 Savio B. 4 months ago on Google

The towering billboards, the sea of people, and the vibrant atmosphere make it a must-visit destination in the heart of New York City. Whether day or night, Times Square never fails to captivate with its dazzling lights and iconic surroundings. From world-class theaters to diverse eateries, there's something for everyone. The sheer diversity of cultures converging in this iconic square creates an unparalleled experience. While it can get crowded, the buzz and excitement are an integral part of the charm. A visit to Times Square is not just a stop, but a journey into the vibrant soul of the city that never sleeps.

    Iconic place in the centre of NYC. M great atmosphere buzzing with people and activity. People just doing impromptu dancing and the famous billboards just awesome to look at. Definitely a place to visit and just soak in the atmosphere. Loved it!

  • 3/5 Jarrod D. 3 months ago on Google New
    This was very underwhelming. There were (obviously) a LOT of people. The more annoying part was the stupid costume characters looking for money. They were everywhere and in the way. It was great to check off a box for me. But it wasnโ€™t all itโ€™s cracked up to be. It was a decent place to โ€œpass throughโ€ on my way to somewhere else. But there wasnโ€™t much to do in Times Square itself. I would not go back. But itโ€™s definitely more of a โ€œone and doneโ€ place.

    My first visit to Times Square was all I expected and more, of course crowded as expected, but the volume of vendors, street performers was a bit overwhelming at first and for the most part I felt safe and comfortable on the street. We left a show around 11 pm and it was just as bright as turning the day, was mind blowing how bright it was..

  • 4/5 CJ G. 3 months ago on Google New
    I've been to the square a few time but never during Christmas. It was very busy but fun to be part of the energy and see all the decorations. Hit the typical spots and got outta there. Late night and short lived trip but still great.

  • 4/5 Steven M. 3 months ago on Google New
    It was I bit underwhelming to see Times Square. Mostly billboards and Advertisements so it didnโ€™t see much of an appeal. Still definitely a good idea to cross this off your bucket list if youโ€™re in Manhattan. A lot of interesting characters all around.

  • 5/5 Master Barber C. 3 months ago on Google New
    We visited during the Christmas season and we liked it! but the parking was a disaster since they charged us 65 dollars. but you can hardly walk! Please don't try this if you don't have the energy to walk.'

  • 5/5 Danielle H. 3 months ago on Google New
    Hustling and bustling! There is so much to do and to see here - I really enjoyed my visit and can't wait to come back. Definitely not a place you want to be if you don't like large crowds, however.

    The vibrant atmosphere truly makes you feel alive, and the iconic sights like the neon lights and Broadway theaters are unforgettable. It's a must-see destination for anyone looking to experience the heart of the city that never sleeps.
