Famous places in New York

Times Square

Times Square

Every year, 35 million people visit Times Square. People are drawn to large-scale branded establishments like American Eagle and specialty shops like Hershey’s, and multiplex theaters with their enormous screens also draw crowds. Times Square requires more than one day to explore because even a week is not long enough to see everything; there are too many things to see. It is preferable to visit the information center first thing in the morning, which is open daily from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. near the intersection of 46th and 47th streets. Afterward, you may join in on the daily live broadcast of the well-known TV program Good Morning America! on the enormous screen of the ABC building. Times Square doesn’t shine as brilliantly during the day as it does at night when the advertising lights are brightly lit.

Fifth Avenue

Central Park and the museums

Central Park

Another nearby institution that we highly recommend is Central Park. It is 843 acres large. It operates under the “pay what you want” philosophy. The museum not only features a cool ancient building, but also a great exhibition, part of which is interactive. You can see rooms that describe New York’s growth from the city of beaver skins to the present day in-depth and in a lively manner. You can save a lot of time with the exposition on its own, which provides a thorough explanation of the city’s building and zoning regulations. Also, the museum offers free guided tours every day at 2 p.m. (Monday via Friday) and 3 p.m. (Saturday); just show up and join the group.
