Chronicles of New York
New York City was founded as a Dutch trading post in 1624, with the city's early growth driven by its strategic port location on the Hudson River. As the British took control in 1664, New York's architecture evolved from wooden buildings to grand Georgian mansions, exemplified by the iconic Federal-style row houses in the West Village. Today, the city's cultural identity is a diverse, cosmopolitan melting pot, with world-class museums like the MoMA and the Guggenheim, and a thriving food scene that reflects its immigrant history. The city's early 20th-century skyscrapers, such as the Chrysler Building and the Empire State Building, are a testament to its status as a hub of finance and commerce.
Best Time to Visit
Full New York guide →Best months
September and October are ideal months for good weather and manageable crowds, with pleasant temperatures ranging from 17°C to 22°C (63°F to 72°F) and fewer tourists than the peak summer months. June is also a great option, with warm weather and a lively atmosphere during the city's Pride Month celebrations.
Peak / festival surge
August is the peak month, with families on summer vacation and a calendar packed with events like the US Open tennis tournament and the Robin Hood Foundation's annual gala, driving hotel prices up and making it a challenging time to find availability. Expect to pay a premium for rooms, especially during the US Open.
Budget shoulder season
April and November are the best budget shoulder months, with mild weather, fewer crowds, and plenty of discounts on hotel rooms. These months offer a great balance of comfortable temperatures and lower prices, making them ideal for budget-conscious travellers.
Weather & packing
New York City's climate is notoriously unpredictable, with sudden thunderstorms and temperature drops in the summer, so be sure to pack layers and a waterproof jacket. Don't forget to bring a portable umbrella, as sudden rain showers can pop up at any time.
