Known as "The World's Most Famous Arena," Madison Square Garden is all about excellence and fun in the lively city of New York. You might not know this, but the first Madison Square Garden opened way back in 1874. It used to be a train station at Madison Square! Jumping ahead to 1968, the current Madison Square Garden was opened at Eighth Avenue and 33rd Street, where Pennsylvania Station used to be. It's a big place now, with a 20,000-seat arena for circuses, ice shows, conventions, and sports events, as well as a 5,000-seat forum, a cool exposition rotunda, a bowling center, a sports hall of fame, and a gallery of sports art. Madison Square Garden is still a top spot for live events and concerts. It offers different modern spaces for special events too. This place has seen so much—famous athletes, top musicians, great performers, even presidents and popes have been here. Come and check out the history and excitement waiting for you at Madison Square Garden!

The location is very convenient, and you can see wax figures of different celebrities. The method of using the tickets after purchase is very simple. I will definitely come again next time I visit the United States.

The location is very convenient, accessible by transferring from the subway to a bus. Inside the museum, you can see various fighter jets, space shuttles, and the Concorde, things you rarely get a chance to see abroad.

A day tour to Niagara Falls from New York City is an excellent option for travelers who want a convenient, hassle-free way to witness one of the world's great natural wonders without the logistics of renting a car or booking an overnight stay. While the long journey can be demanding, the awe-inspiring experience of the falls makes every hour on the bus worth it.

The long-awaited Harry Potter is back, this time focusing on the next generation and telling the story of what happens next. The set design and effects are absolutely stunning and worth seeing.

The boat is a bit small, but everyone can find a seat with a good view, which is nice. If you don't have much time, this is a good tour option.

The tour guide provided a very detailed explanation, and there wasn't a dull moment during the two hours. If you don't have a lot of time, I recommend taking this tour. The bus left 15 minutes early that day.

Buying e-tickets and skipping the line is super convenient! I recommend starting your visit from the 5th floor (Van Gogh's Starry Night, Gauguin, Monet, etc.). Even visiting on the weekend, it doesn't feel too crowded, and the quality of the visit is quite good. The souvenir shop also has well-designed merchandise, and you'll definitely spend a lot of time in the shop area 👍
