Times Square - Manhattan, NYC, New York, USA

[post_ads_2]
Unless you’ve never turned on a television, this scene will be familiar — the flashing neon lights, massive signage, street characters and densely packed retailers, ranging from designer Steve Madden to the New York Yankees Clubhouse store. Renovated and rehabilitated at the end of the last century from its days as a seedier section of town, the Times Square neighborhood is now a major commercial intersection, tourist destination and entertainment center. Explore and have fun, but remain cautious. Pickpockets, purse snatchers and other criminals prowl the ultra-crowded area (more than 300,000 people pass through Times Square daily), so guard your wallet and packages. Oh, and look for the flagpole on top of One Times Square.
