jam***26:“Central Park is very fun. There are large lawns and many squirrels running around. You can rent bicycles and ride horse-drawn carriages in the park. It is also nice to just walk around. There is a huge children's playground not far from Columbus circle. Children from all over the world who come to New York come here to play. They can play in the sand and water, and there are slides, swings, and rockeries. It is easy to play for half a day. There are also many people playing on the lawn. Many people there like to throw frisbees. Many families come here for vacation. It doesn't get dark until about 8:30 in the summer in the United States, so it's no problem to play in the park for a whole day!”
135***16:“The Rockefeller Center is located in Manhattan, New York, United States, a complex of 19 commercial buildings, the bottom floors of each building are connected. The largest is the General Electric Building, 259 meters high, a total of 69 floors, the center covers a total of 22 acres, completed in 1939. The designer is Raymond M. Hood. The Rockefeller Center stands east-west, from 48th to 51st Street, three blocks north-south, and three vertical blocks from Fifth Avenue to Seventh Avenue. The complex was built with the investment of the Rockefeller family. In 1987, it was designated by the US government as a “National Historic Landmark,” the largest privately owned complex in the world, and a landmark that marks Art Deco-style architecture, with significant significance that has long surpassed the building itself. The Rockefeller Center, known as one of the greatest urban plans of the 20th century, opened a new urban planning landscape for public space, with complete malls and office buildings making Midtown Manhattan the second city center in New York after Wall Street. Rockefeller Center is almost a perfect representation of Ferris’s paintings, including the distribution of the complex and the configuration of the heights, the lower international building next to Fifth Avenue slowly undulating to the tallest General Electric building next to Sixth Avenue, and the square for public use intersects (Strait Garden Channel Garden, Lower Plaza, etc.).”
LolaBM:“Our family had an amazing time at the American Museum of Natural History! From the moment we stepped inside, we felt like we were on a journey through time and across the world. The dinosaur skeletons were absolutely jaw-dropping — the kids couldn’t stop talking about them.We loved exploring the different halls, from the giant blue whale in the ocean life exhibit to the fascinating space displays in the planetarium. There was something for everyone in the family to enjoy, and we learned so much while having fun together.The museum was well-organized, and the staff was friendly and helpful. We spent hours there and still felt like there was more to see — it’s a place we’d love to visit again.It was a perfect mix of education and adventure, and we left with wonderful memories and lots of great family photos. Highly recommend for anyone visiting New York City!”

130***95:“I highly recommend this spot. I experienced it both during the day and at night this year, and it was truly breathtaking. The sound and light show started from the elevator and continued all the way to the top. Every step was like Inception. It was a wonderful experience, and the photos were great too, with a panoramic view of Manhattan. You can also experience it outdoors.”
130***95:“A very good musical magic show with great special effects and stage design. The visual effects are very shocking and worth checking out. There are a lot of dialogues, so some English listening skills are required.”
