When to go à NEW YORK (MANHATTAN) ?
New York has a humid continental climate, with four distinct seasons and dizzying temperature variations. The half seasons are the most pleasant, with mild temperatures during the day and cooler evenings. In the summer, a suffocating heat envelops the city, which is transformed into a sauna under the effect of humidity. In winter, it is often freezing... But discovering New York under the snow is an experience of pure magic, provided you are well equipped!
With an oceanic climate, Manhattan's weather varies considerably throughout the year. We recommend going in the spring or fall, with September and its famous Indian summer (with temperatures in the 20-25°C range and beautiful sunshine) being without a doubt the blessed season. In July and August, the thermostat rises and the atmosphere becomes stifling, while in winter, the temperature in Manhattan approaches -15°C on certain days in January and February.
When to go to Manhattan? There is no high or low season in New York, the city is operating at full capacity 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Some seasons can be particularly pleasant for their climate or their relative tranquility in terms of tourist numbers.
Spring is very mild (May and June) and it is also a very busy time for festivals and cultural events, with prices tending to rise. Be careful, sometimes winter extends until mid-May.
September and its famous Indian Summer is certainly the best time to go to Manhattan: temperatures in the 20 to 25°C, beautiful sunshine, clear skies and a quieter city, where the months of July and August are often hot, stuffy and overcrowded.
Finally, spending the Christmas holiday in New York can be a great experience if you're wondering when to go to Manhattan. It is very cold, of course, but it is a dry cold that makes it possible to tolerate the level of mercury. The oceanic climate of the city often gives a blue sky and a vigorous sunshine (ah! the New York light...) which makes the immaculate snow cover of the Big Apple even more brilliant (very beautiful walks in Central Park in perspective, where you have every chance to meet a ski room in the park's valleys). As Americans have a sense of celebration and celebration, you will discover a city entirely decorated with Christmas colours and gigantic festivities.

Discover NEW YORK (MANHATTAN)
Seeing New York on the big screen and in your friends' vacation photos, you probably feel like you know the city before you've even set foot in it, and you imagine that it won't be able to surprise you... Think again! This multi-faceted city has many surprises in store, from its history to its culture, cuisine, people and indescribable energy. This is the birthplace of street art, hip-hop, punk rock, black literature and the Beat Generation. The setting for films, TV series and novels, it's inspiring and inspiring, exhausting because it's inexhaustible. We won't claim that it's the capital of the world, lest we fall into cliché, but we will dare to say that it has the makings of one.
