TIMES SQUARE NEW YORK

There’s no place on earth quite like “Times Square” a sensory overload of neon, noise, and unapologetic energy. I emerged from the subway at twilight into a pulsing sea of light, where 40-story digital billboards turned night into day and crowds moved in rhythmic chaos. It’s overwhelming, exhausting, and utterly mesmerizing.

The Good, The Loud, and The Unexpected
The Steps at TKTS: The perfect perch to people-watch (and the only free seats in the area)

Midnight Moment: At 11:57pm nightly, every screen synchronizes for a 3-minute art show—my favorite quiet(ish) moment

A street vendor told me Times Square sees 360,000 pedestrians daily a number that made sense as I dodged selfie sticks and Broadway hopefuls belting show tunes. Yet beneath the commercial frenzy, history lingers: look for the New York Times building (the square’s namesake) or the art deco Brill Building where music legends once worked.
