Is there a long wait in line? In daytime or evening?

I think the wait was about 5 min. We were there over the Christmas holiday last year; so it might depend upon the season. But regardless, it’s magical and well worth the wait. Made me feel surrealistically beautiful. (No-I wasn’t on drugs-never done them in fact.) I think others may get something different out of it, depending on what mood you’re in to begin with; but I will definitely go back again the next time I’m in NYC. Potentially go a couple of times in the same day even - I liked it that much. My boyfriend and I both enjoyed it and felt it’s very beautiful.
