Winter wasn't too bad this year, but now it's officially spring, and it really feels like it. Spend some time outside on these gorgeous days! Take a picnic to Central Park or Bryant Park, walk down Fifth Avenue, take the kids to the zoo, the possibilities seem endless. Here is a list of things to do outdoors in the city this spring and summer.
Spring is here, and that means things will start blooming soon! If you're looking to see some exotic flowers, check out the Macy's Flower show this year, March 25-April 7. This year's flowers will be from Brazil, so you'll see lots of tropical and exotic things. The show will go on in the tent on Broadway Plaza! Don't forget there will be other events going on at Macy's related to the flowers, like a Spring Fashion Show, kids events, and more!
Starting on March 3 and running until April 22, visit the New York Botanical Garden to see the orchid show! This is the country's largest exhibition of orchids. You can just go see them or there are some events being held, like a Q&A about orchids, tours, classes, and Orchid Evenings! Orchid Evenings are Saturday evening throughout the show where there is a live DJ and tickets include one free cocktail. For more information, visit the official website.
