Gay New York City

The Big Apple is the frenetic home to countless millions of people, zooming about with purpose. For some, it’s intimidating; for others, the pace is exhilarating. This emotional overwhelmingness is a cornerstone of the Manhattan experience, so embrace the sensory overload and pinch yourself: This is the self-proclaimed center of it all, the biggest city in the country (by a factor of three)!  Things happen in New York City, and you are just along for the ride.
And what a ride it will be!  There is no shortage of things to do in this epic metropolis; boredom is simply not on the menu. Take in a show on the Great White Way; explore the hipster enclaves around Brooklyn; get lost in the cavernous Museum of Metropolitan Art or be inspired by modern art at the MoMA; eat at any one of the hundreds of epicurean gems that are scattered throughout.
The five boroughs – Queens, the Bronx, Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Staten Island – each have their own personalities, enticing adventuresome travelers to take off the Manhattan blinders and get down and dirty with a multitude of only-in-New-York experiences. Each time you visit, there is just so much more to discover!
One note of caution – the summers can be brutally humid in the city, and the winters equally so. Wintertime enchantment hits its peak in December just before Christmas hits in full swing, and the shoulder seasons of spring and fall are by far the best times to see the Big Apple – less crowds and more gorgeous weather is a winning combination.
