I went to Flushing Meadows Corona Park, Queens to do a photo assignment.
If you visit New York City and you have a chance to get to the other boroughs such as Queens, this park should be on your must see list.
The park was hosting the World’s Fair in 1964-65, and now is home for the Unisphere, the Queens Museum of Art, the New York State Pavilion, etc.
I love the Unisphere, which is the largest globe in the world-you can see it from the subway, from several highways and from a long distance. It’s an official New York City landmark. Queens is the perfect place for the Unisphere because in this borough many different nationalities live from all over the world.
There’s a fountain under the Unisphere but during the winter the water is shot off so a lot of kids skate and rollerblade under the globe.
This park was also used in movies such as Men in Black.
