Times Square

This iconic New York City intersection is a favorite for group travel to Manhattan, though it can be overwhelming to first-timers. You’ll recognize it by the giant digital billboards. The brightly lit advertisements and neon lights of Broadway make Times Square an especially fascinating sight after dark.

The intersection exists where Broadway meets Seventh Avenue, though it stretches beyond this point as well. It’s not just a convergence of large, neon ads, though. Broadway theaters abound here. Good Morning America films here. And there are museums, shops, and restaurants as well. Here are some of the big names you’ll find here, but there are many other popular restaurants and shopping centers nearby as well.
