Christmas is one of the biggest festival among the western countries. Celebrating Christmas has always been a mission to many, while having a perfect NYC Christmas is always on my checklist. As thousands of people flood to NYC every December, eager to get a taste of Christmas in the Big Apple, here is the To Do List on how to score a perfect Christmas in the city that never sleeps:
1. Christmas dinner is a MUST
The list of restaurants with a view can be found on my previous post. However, if you are a foodie, I highly recommended Blue Hill at Stone Barns.

One of the most popular Christmas activities in NYC is strolling through Christmas markets and finding gift for everyone on your favourite list! You will discover a wide range of products, from handcrafted kids' toys to paintings and Christmas tree ornaments as well as food stalls! Seriously, who doesn't like shopping?

4. Check Out NYC Christmas Displays
 |
| This mall is one of my favourite places to hang out in NYC simply because 1) it's close to my home and 2) it never gets too crowded. |
 |
| Located downtown NY near financial district and directly across the 911 Memorial, this is a relatively new mall called the Brookfield Place. |
 |
Here is one of the best Christmas displays this year in my opinion.
This Christmas light show musical is so stunning! It runs from 4:35 to 11:35pm each night until Jan at Saks Fifth Avenue.
