Manhattanhenge is an event that occurs twice a year in New York City when the setting sun aligns perfectly with the east-west streets of the borough of Manhattan. This results in a stunning visual effect where the sun appears as a glowing orb suspended between the buildings.
Manhattanhenge 2025 will occur on May 29th and July 12th. During these times, the sun will set directly over the center of the Manhattanhenge grid, providing a breathtaking spectacle that draws thousands of spectators each year. It is a unique and awe-inspiring event that showcases the beauty of the city’s architecture and urban planning.
