New York Times Square day trip!

Times Square in New York City, formerly known as Longacre Square, is usually referred to as the "Great White Way" because the lights of Broadway theaters illuminate the area, forming the second avenue at the intersection of Broadway, Seventh Avenue, and 40th Street. It was renamed after the completion of the New York Times Building in 1904. The central building on the square is still famous for its outdoor news "zipper" that displays the latest news. By the 1920s, the community had become a concentrated entertainment area for theaters, vaudeville, musical performances, bars, and restaurants. This is a place where I can sit from morning till night, watching all those different animated neon lights shining on the top of buildings, as well as the many people with different emotions and shapes. Times Square is known as the "crossroads of the world" and is one of the busiest pedestrian streets in the world. According to surveys by many world tourism and leisure magazines, Times Square is the most visited tourist attraction in the world, attracting over 39 million visitors annually.
