New York shines in all seasons. Spring and fall, with their mild temperatures and disarmingly beautiful blossoms and foliage, are optimal times for strolling, which is done a lot here. Summer brings stifling heat and sizzling pavements but other awards aplenty, from outdoor concerts and festivals to crowd-free weekends, reduced hotel rates and perfect opportunities for side trips to the seashore. Finally, while winter can be chilly, it’s nothing that can’t be cured by lingering in cozy museums and cafes – or by the fact that hotel rates tend to drop after the fun and frenzied holidays, when the crowds thin out.
