Temple Emanu-El

The Temple Emanu-el is beautiful. High ceilings, stained glass windows and marble pillars makes this temple majestic.

The City of Temple encourages participation by all citizens of Temple and particularly persons of low and moderate income who reside in neighborhoods .

One the biggest and mb jost beautiful Temples in the world

Grand temple synagogue. This is a hidden gem well worth visiting when in New York City

Amazing architecture. Like a medieval castle with ceilings 50 ft High and decorated impressively. Worth seeing at least just once even if you are Jewish.

Fabulous collection of Barbra Striesand's gowns and memorabilia!

Incredibly beautiful space. I'm not sure how you can enter without going through the 'museum', but either way it's worth the visit.

It place where you can meet many educated people and participate in many interesting events

I love this place very relaxing and very down to earth!!

One of the most beautiful places I've seen in NY.
No matter what religious you have - this is a MUST place to go.
Overwhelming. No doubt

It is a beautiful temple that you want to see forever regardless of religion.

Became a member as a young adult, now a Sr. Citizen. All staff, Rabbis and members have been the very kindest and welcoming to the new member and to this Sr. Citizen over all these years. A wonderful and welcoming place to be a member. Just like a warm home.

Came here on trip from England to see Hello Gorgeous exhibition. Lovely layout and not busy at all. Was also captivated by the beautiful Jewish artifacts on display. Would recommend a trip.

A beautiful temple in the heart of NYC. Very close to the Central Park Zoo. Unfortunately it us not open unless services are being held as the doors were locked when I tried to get in on a weekday. The outside details are very intricate and beautiful.

Beautiful synagogue, was taken aback by the architecture

Enormous historical place, great architectural design and vision. Nice friendly stuff and management.

While the synagogue is beautiful, the services are cold, little feeling of being in a Jewish house of worship. I come from the oldest reform Temple west of the Mississippi, but even there, you feel a Jewish connection. We sing our prayers together in Hebrew; we try to partake in the service. Here, I felt the last leg of anything Jewish. As a reform Jew with a history of 4 generations in California, I left here sad; I felt no sense of community, a service so void of anything that touched my heart as a Jew. Take away the magnificent building, to me, it could be any place of worship..... Jewish? unfortunately not.

Magnificent structure with historical significance.

This beautiful and historic landmark is open for self guided tours most weekdays. Worship is at 6pm on Friday nights and 1030am on Saturday mornings, with a world class choir, organ, and often other instrumentation, mixing classic and contemporary liturgical music. The preschool, religious school, and other family and adult programs are among the very best in NYC, as you would expect from this 175 year old institution. The community is friendly and visitors are always welcomed warmly.

Last night we spent a fascinating evening at The Steckler Center at Temple Emanuel where Thomas Friedman and Rabbi Daniel Gordis had a discussion on Israeli and American relations. In the sold out auditorium, we sat and listened to two brilliant men explain the very complicated relationship between the American Jews and those living in Israel. The Steckler Center has some very prominent upcoming speakers including Justice John Roberts and Julie Andrews. While those events are already sold out, we are planning to be returning in the near future!

Perhaps one of the most indescribably beautiful houses of worship in the entire world. If you ever get to go, even if you sit alone, one of two things will happen. You will either get closer to your inner self..........or closer to God. A human triumph of religious architecture.

Magnificent temple in New York City. Very grand and beautiful. Highly recommend visiting. The guides there are also very nice.

The largest and most impressive synagogue I've ever seen ... worth seeing

A wonderful Yom Kippur enjoyed by myself online live. The Holiday Service was so enjoyable!

Had a great tour guide. Just happened, wasn't planned.

This is the joint! It's the top mentioned synagogue in tv, in books, etc. Known historically for having many celebrity members such a Barbara Walters, Mike Bloomberg. The services are classic Reform Judaism and you will find that the services on Friday night tend to be short.

The Temple is quite awesome inside and they offer free tickets to their concerts!

Attended a book tour stop and was impressed with the temple as a venue. Fantastic, would go again.

Beautiful sanctuary at this wonderful synagogue that has the largest congregation in the United States.

Beautiful worship space. Warm and welcoming people.

Lovely space. Amazing programs. Gorgeous. I attended a film and discussion of the Triplets movie with friends. Spectacular event.

Went there for a senior event was a full house nice people very informative with lots of information.

Historic UES synagogue overlooking Fifth Avenue and Central Park

It's like watching a Beoadway show tune entitled, "Now that were in America were basically treated white, in New York".

It is a beautiful place. Very ornate and intricate architecture. The staff is pleasant and Security is very helpful.

Large and beautiful inside, reformed synagogue with very good performances...

The most beautiful synagogue I have ever seen. The museum is small but rich in history.

Excellent for a Shabbat kabalat. It is very different from the Argentine way. It looks more like a church. But it was good to go

Beautiful roshana services zoomed in happy new year!

Great place to work as a security officer. I wish i could work there.

Majestic synagogue without doubt the most beautiful I visited .. unmissable!

Excellent facility for the Liz Kreuger Sr. Resource Fair.
