Madame Tussuads And Rockefeller Center

Hello,



I am okay except the coldness outside but it's not a big deal once it will be colder in a month! Today i am gonna talk about Madame Tussuad and Rockefeller Center, these two places are really nice places in New York. As a matter of fact i went to Madame Tussuad in Los Angeles but they are pretty similar so i think there is no problem.

Madame Tussuads is the most famous wax museum in the world, actually it's more than a simple museum there are some representations that are really impressive given the fact that they are made of wax, and the impression that you'll have is that the person is really there on your side. The MT in New York is the biggest one, with a big variety of figures to see. So if you come to New York it's  a nice place to go and in the Winter time you will be able to see the Polar Express in Times Squares in 3D. This is not free and if you wanna see all attractions you will spend $30 bucks, it worths it though.

Well, let's talk about Rockefeller Center!


Rockefeller Center is a really beautiful place in New York, it is located on Fifth Av between 49th street and 50th street. There are plenty of things to visit there, for instance: The Channel Gardens, Concourse, The Ice Skating Rink and the last but not least The Tree. I came to New York in the Summer, and the RC was really cool, i had the opportunity to see the Channel Gardens in three seasons and in the Fall is the most beautiful, actually it's nice all seasons so it's not a big deal the important is to see it! Now with the Christmas arriving the RC is even nicer with a lot of ornaments and finally with the Tree, which the big opening was yesterday with Mariah Carey.
The Ice Skating Rink is really charming and you will skate listening the typical American's Christmas songs or if you are not that into skating you can go to the Concourse and choose one of the restaurants that surrounds the Rink to eat a delicious dish while you appreciate the tumbles of people. =) You also can visit the Top of The Rock where you can see all city from the top of the building, to take a lot of pictures with the Prometheus, Atlas and other attractions.
 To go to the Top of The Rock you will spend $30, and you can buy it weather online or on 50th street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, it works from 10am to 7pm seven days a week.

I am posting here a link of my friend Gustavo, he came up with this excellent idea of talking about Jesus in this nice web site, so here it is!
