Tis the season! Time to start decorating your doors and your bathrooms with red and green and maybe white. It is the season where people are kind to each other. They want to celebrate the joy of giving. It may be a religious holiday, and to others, it may be just a time to spend with your family and loved ones. During the month people usually go out and see Times Square, The big tree near Rockefeller center, maybe see a movie. But what is impressive to watch is all the lights around.

However, if you love Christmas light but the city's may be TOO much, the perfect place I recommend to go to is in ' Dyker Heights Christmas Lights. It is fantastic to see all the decorations and lights all around the neighborhood. My family and I go around everything year, and it's just mesmerizing. Located in Brooklyn NY, the dyker heights neighborhood puts up decoration, such as statues, animatronic, Christmas music, and elaborate tree lights and it is pretty amazing too look at.
As we know it today, the holiday lights extravaganza was started in 1986 by a resident of 84th Street, who began decorating her house with lights and displays, inspiring her neighbors to follow suit. Over 100,000 people visit Dyker Heights during the holidays each year to see "the Rockefeller lights" of Dyker height. Each year more and more decorations are put up, and more and more people come to see. Unfortunately, some houses won't be showing their lights. (That's due to something that has the same name as a beer beverage). Fortunately, some houses are scaling up due to make up for this challenging year.

The neighborhood started hanging the light after thanksgiving and will keep them on until the beginning of January. Best time to come in at 5 or 6 pm. Due to you-know-what, food trucks and street vendors want to be there. So if you're going to get a bite best places to eat are Tony's Pizza, Parkway, George souvlaki, and many more areas.
