bank of america winter village at bryant park
Scroll down for video review / tour / photos.
Bryant Park is always on the "Must Stop" list / NYC. During the holiday season (I consider Halloween official start)? Bank of America / workers create true holiday / Christmas magic. Ice skating rink (need to learn how they did it in 70-degree temps, no joke!). The only free ice skating in NYC. Obviously, need to pay for rentals. The Lodge (next visit), for when temps drop down to normal November / holiday season, a chance to warm up / relax with great food / beverages. Best part? Holiday shopping!!!! Bank of America Winter Village seriously has it all. I did some early holiday shopping. Ornaments before everyone decorates this year! Don't ask...
Ornaments I bought from Christmas and City. Definitely stop by make sure you add some personalization (free). Don't forget to add Letter to Santa!

Walked around Bank of America Winter Village at Bryant Park, you will get all holiday shopping done here. 2 bonuses: Support small businesses / indie creators! Winter Village has a wide variety of ideas, including treating yourself (everyone has earned it). In addition to decorations / ornaments: jewelry / art / leather goods (journals / bags / and more) / art / clothing / food and much more. Need a break?
Hot cider / chocolate / great variety of food not only at The Lodge. Looking for a more personal experience? Want to drop a few extra bucks? Check out the Igloos. $215 for 90 minutes, honestly, a good deal for 2 / great value: 4 people (do the math). The heated part / food / drink inclusion makes for a definite recommendation.
In case you haven't figured it out by now: Bank of America Christmas Village has my highest recommendation for your NYC visit!!!!! Seriously, cannot wait for tree lighting. Forget about that other tree, Bryant Park is far more beautiful. Will be returning this holiday season. Hey, more shopping to do! Maybe pick up something for myself.
