EasyTicket Empire State Building
📍 United States New York 미드타운
The Empire State Building is a classic observatory in the heart of Manhattan. By day, it's good for reading the street grid and views toward Central Park; at night, Midtown's lights stand out clearly.
With many observation levels, entry time slots, and ticket options, it's better to choose ahead based on official information than to decide on-site the same day.

Useful tips
- Sunset and the hours around it are popular, so check both waits and pricing conditions.
- Adding Bryant Park or Koreatown before or after the observatory keeps the route compact.
- When planning, I found that I had to account separately for the observatory and exhibition time. According to the official FAQ, a standard visit includes the flow through the 2nd- and 80th-floor exhibits and the 86th-floor observatory, so it's better to allow more time than you would for simple night-view photos.
- The official FAQ says every visit requires a timed reservation. If you're aiming for popular slots, such as around sunset, compare not only the weather but also your reservation time, included observation deck, and express options.
Frequently asked questions
How should I think about the difference between the 86th and 102nd floors?
Official information distinguishes the 86th floor as an outdoor observatory and the 102nd floor as an indoor observatory with floor-to-ceiling windows. Which floors are included varies by ticket type, so check the official ticket information before booking.
