2025 Times Square Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

Before going to New York, I heard a lot about how you must see Times Square at night....!! After visiting during the day and then returning in the evening after exploring other places, it felt like a completely new place with a different atmosphere! 🫢 Since it was Halloween season, there were many people dressed in character costumes taking photos, but be careful as you might be forced to tip if you take a photo with them. 💦😅 I will never forget the dazzling billboards constantly changing and the lights filling Times Square at night. 📍Times Square ▫️New York, NY 10036, USA ▫️Take a walk along Times Square street! ▫️Famous nearby restaurant: Red Lobster

I’ve been to New York a few times already and I’m always amazed of how the timesquare shines so bright most especially at night. There are a lot of stores in the area like Krispy kreme, M&Ms, H&M, Macy’s and the newly opened Filipino Jollibee. Truth is, it’s very hard to take a very good picture because of the crowd and some people would take pictures of you without asking permission. Now, this is the part you should know! 1. Some people would take pictures of you most especially when you are taking pictures yourself and they’ll show it to you and ask for “donation” which should be any amount but if you give them less than $20, they would automatically say “atleast $20” Some people would like to have that but just make sure, it’s worth it. 2. A lot of people would wear costumes/mascots. If it’s not necessary for you to have a picture with them, stay out of their sight or better, when they attempt to join you in the picture in which you didn’t say voluntarily, tell them in advance that you don’t want them in the frame. They are pretty persuasive by saying just a “donation” and you think you can pay $5 but they would ask a $20 minimum or worse, if you don’t have change, they make it $50 for 4 pictures just like mine. THIS IS JUST FOR AWARENESS SO EVERYONE COULD ENJOY NEW YORK AS IT IS A VERY AMAZING PLACE TO GO TO. #newyork #newyorkcitylife #travel #travelguide #wanning #warning #timessquare

Visited M&M's World at Times Square for the second time after 4 years and I'm happy to find new displays and products. It's not just a store... it's a destination itself, especially for those who love this brand and have a sweet tooth. #spooktaculartrip #chocolate #fallingforfall #timessquare #mmworld #coupletrip #nyc

Times Square, located in Midtown Manhattan, is also known as the crossroads of the world or the heart of the world. It is the most representative attraction in New York. Times Square is surrounded by countless colorful, dazzling giant advertising TV walls. If you look at them for too long, your eyes will be sore 😎. Remember not to stare at them for too long. Also because this place is so lively and famous, there are a lot of people, whether it is merchants or tourists, so you have to be extra careful about public security. In addition to taking care of your bags, don't talk to people who approach you casually, or be careful if people who are dressed up suddenly ask you to take a photo. It's easy to be cheated. You still have to stay vigilant during your trip so that you can go out happily and return home safely.

Times Square is now considered the heart of New York. This vibrant metropolis, with its huge, illuminated advertising hoardings is the liveliest part of Manhattan. We stayed at Homewood Hilton at 37th Street which allowed us to discover the places of interest by foot which was what we were looking forward to as the city was bustling with people all the time. Not to mention the siren of the police car could be heard quite frequently. This place, whatever specialty you’re looking for; you’ll find it in Times Square. #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #passionpassport #wintergetaway #bucketlistreboot My wish for my next destination is Amsterdam.😍

The bustling city of New York was something I was initially not too used to. Travelling around to see the various iconic landmarks was sometimes uncomfortable especially having to squeeze in the underground trains. Nevertheless, we got to check out places like the Saint Thomas Church, which has gorgeous gothic-inspired architecture and beautiful stained glass windows. We also crossed the Brooklyn Bridge and made our way to the Google office plus Times Square too. My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #nyinsider #tripmoments #church #architecture #history #newyork #unitedstatesofamerica
