My favorite place to hang out in New York City is Times Square. I go there all the time because there is always something new to see. There is so much energy and excitement; it just gives me the “feel of New York City”. I love the lights and the noise and all the people. Everything is open all night and you can hardly tell it’s dark out! It’s like the city’s playground. Even the subway sign is lit up. Everything there is so much fun, even the regular stuff. The billboards are huge and the lights are bright. There is an infinite number of things to look at and it seems like it’s always changing. For this reason, I love bringing people to Times Square that have never been to New York. I also think it’s a great place for people watching; there are so many different types of people there from all walks of life. People who speak different languages, rich, poor, homeless people, all races. It’s such a rich and interesting mix. I especially love watching the tourists take pictures of everything. I think Times Square is the quintessential New York City that people think of when they are visiting. It has the bright lights, the excitement and the noise that you expect out of the greatest city in the world.
