Coming up in October, New York City will come alive with glowing pumpkins, spiced lattes, and eerie tales of one of the most influential cities in America. Don't miss out on the several festive occasions throughout Manhattan and its surrounding areas this year! The NYC tradition in this post is one of our favorites.
Some of the best things about New York City are its unending subcultures. From hipsters to old money, the neighborhoods of New York have a little something for everyone. There's even a specific museum for those tourists who are into not-so-traditional art. Perhaps the best time to visit one of NYC's creepiest museums is this October, just in time for Halloween.
One thing about New York City is that there's a museum for pretty much anything. We have art museums and taxidermy museums, but did you know there's a museum that lets you explore NYC's vast subway tunnels and beautiful, derelict stations? Well, there is. The New York Transit Museum offers semi-regular tours for those seeking a little info about the world beneath Manhattan's streets.
On September 18th, Fort Tryon Park goes back in time with the Medieval Festival, twenty minutes away from the Manhattan at Times Square Hotel.
While you may have heard plenty about New York City's hundreds of speakeasies, this twist on exclusive hidden gems asks you to ring a doorbell for food instead. A restaurant located in the back of a brewery, Dinnertable is a secretive dining experience you will never forget, and it's only twenty minutes away from the Manhattan.
