Market Friday Bryant park Christmas Fair

A post for Market Friday hosted by @dswigle, if you haven't followed her yet you should she is one of the kindest and most supportive people here on Hive, a comment from her is like a ray of sunshine on your page.
This is the one tag and challenge that I always make a point of joining, and also look through the posts of others that join the challenge and seeing markets from all around the world.

For this weeks post, I went back to my archives again back when I was working in NYC, now I have said at times I do not miss NYC so much, but on thinking about it, at this time of year especially I do miss my Walks around the city and seeing all the decorations and lights at this time of year.

Thinking about that lead to this post as I was thinking about the places I would always visit in the weeks leading up to Christmas in NYC and Battery Park was one of them, to see mainly the Tree and Ice Skating rink, but also to check out the festive shops which I will focus on in this post.

They call this set of Kiosks that they have each year the Winter Village and has over 150 Kiosks selling all kinds of things

To Be honest I mostly visited this area early morning before the shops open, sometimes walking up there in my lunch break finding it to crowded for my liking and just walking on buy. but once I visited there when it wasnt so crowded and got these shots I will share from a few years back

This Row is up near the Ice Skating rink

A look in that store and loved some of the things they had on display, but didn't like the prices so much and did not end up getting anything from there

I cannot get over how few people there are I am guessing this is around when the shops had just opened up and before the midday crowds

If ever visiting NYC around this time of year there is so much to see, but I would recommend swinging by Bryant park if you can

Walk down memory lane these fascinating temporary stalls going up for Christmas time in the park, lovely photography pity the price in metal works was on the steep side.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Kiosk rental is most probably that high they are forced to sell products at high pricing.

It's cool how they just have them all shoved together like that. It is almost like a farmers market or flea market, but the goods seem to be much higher quality. I can only imagine what the prices were like at that metal shop!

Yeah they sure squeeze in as many kiosks as they can, I think the prices in all of them are pretty high I dread to imagine how much the vendors pay for one of those Kiosks

have a good day and weekend

Yeah, they probably have to make up their rent. I didn't even think of that!

Bryant Park... They seem to be permanent structures, these stores. It's quite an innovative way to use the space.
Thanks for showing us, @tattoodjay ,
Have a nice day! And happy #marketfriday!

Very nice post JJ 👍
This year is the first year when there's a Christmas Market here in town again since the pandemic.

It's quite a while since I have been to a Christmas Market last, but I remember that once we were there with our kids. It was beautifully snowing and the snow was already at least 2 feet high - it was awesome and the kids had so much fun ❄️

True, the market was or better said is full of people, especially at night 😀

We have been there without snow and it didn't feel like a Christmas Market - even having mulled wine or punch didn't help 😂 !LOLZ

!WINE makes a delicious dinner with !PIZZA :)

Frohe Weihnachten, Hannes!

I loved your past posts about Bryant Park. It is such a happy place and with the additon of those stalls/stores, it adds a great place to peruse.

That metal shop would definitely be one that I would want to see. Can you imagine having that suit of armour adorning your home entry? :)

I have to say that I am missing your NYC walks at Christmastime. Sak's Macy's and Bergdof's had kick butt windows this year. I think everyone went out of their way to make it merry. Thankfully, you are one of those people that makes beauty wherever you go. I want to thank you for the market this week and every week! You are the best!

I want to thank you for giving me the opportunity to get to know you and your piece of the world just a little bit better. I have learned so much about the different cultures of the world, I especially love the small things in life and make a point to give them notice. Life has been interesting for me this week, and I hope your week has found you happy and healthy, as we all look to prosper in our way of life.

I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world. Please take the time to read a couple #MarketFriday posts and leave a genuine comment behind. It is important to interact within the community, allowing for others to bond with each other. The fun is in getting to know people and making a positive contribution to community life. I am pretty sure that is why I joined Hive. All this fun and money too. What if not to love?


Fridays are all about the #MarketFriday Challenge! Looking to take part in it? Here is how:


Rules of the Road to Join #MarketFriday!


  1. Go to the market, or anywhere that you pay money for a service. It can be a movie, an auction, or even a museum. Wherever money is exchanged for a service or product.
    Take pictures! Be creative!
  2. Tell us a little bit about the market or the event. What brought you there? What did you buy? How much did it cost? Was it expensive? Did it go up or down? A scroll of pictures with few words doesn't usually work.
  3. Post the pictures. Of course, you should tell a little bit about the ones you post, it is too difficult to guess about some.
  4. Use the MarketFriday Community Platform to post (#hive-196308) This is not required but appreciated.
    PLEASE Drop the link into the MarketFriday comment section so I can find it!!
  5. Following me and reblogging the post would be appreciated, but not a rule, more vision for more views on the #MarketFriday posts!
    7. You must put #MarketFriday by @dswigle somewhere on your post.

As always, please remember! #MarketFriday loves you!
