Head over to the Times Square Church at 234 West 42nd Street between 7th and 8th Avenue, to watch a free, fun Gospel service. It is worth noting that these services last around 2 hours, with 60 minutes of the service praising. Services run throughout the day on a Sunday: 10am, 1pm, 3pm and 6pm.
Check the church’s website for more details.

I LOVE Times Square. I know that people think it is overrated and just for tourists but I’ve always loved the hustle and bustle. The bright lights are just the right amount of big-city overwhelming! Love this guide on all the awesome things to do. The M&M store has always been my personal favorite 🙂
I’ve been to NYC once, way back in 2009 on a trip with school! We went to Times Square and I thought it was amazing. I’d love to visit again. Thanks for the heads up on what to do!
I love your pictures! The Ride sounds like something I’d definitely have to try!
I really want to go to NYC and all the suggestions looks great!

Totally agree, a visit to New York has to include a visit to Times Square! I love this post though because when I’ve been before I just sort of wandered aimlessly around. It’s good to have some more info on what to see! My favourite thing I did in New York was take a limo ride home because we bargained it down to be cheap and got him to drive through Times Square at 4am!
My first visit to NYC I stayed just off Times Square so spent a lot of time around there. I think I went in the Hard Rock Cafe for tea one night. My last trip to NYC was in August and there were so many tourists there I didn’t spend hardly any time there. It is a great place though and I would love to see NYE in there 🙂
The pictures look absolutely lovely.There’s so much to do in and around Times Square.I would love to check out The Ride and The Hershey’s store apart form going on a food trail.
I really enjoyed this post! It’s a HUGE dream of mine to visit New York but I actually didn’t know much about what was actually in Times Square- so I loved reading about everything! All of the options sound so fun- seems like I could easily spend a whole day just in that area!
NYC is truly a great place and Time Square having so much to do is a wonderful place to visit. My ultimate favorite place though for Hershey, is Hershey Pennsylvania where even the street lights are shaped like hershey kisses 🙂
I love NY and Times Square and want to do all of these things! It’s been years since I was there tho so thanks for the heads up on whats available right now. It will be helpful when I’m planning!
NYC looks like such a fun place. I have never been here but now want to plan a trip soon. The amount of chocolate goodness is awesome! Are there any restaurants that you would recommend for us vegetarians? Also, are there any free attractions that could help a budget traveller?
There is so much to do and see just at the times square. I never knew it. I have never been to NYC but I would definitely one day. And then I will visit all these spots as soon as I arrive in the city
I love Time Square! It is such a hub for all things fun and all things vibrant! I love a good Hard Rock Cafe visit anytime! There really is so much to do there.
