Times Square - Бесплатный Аудиогид

Times Square is a major commercial junction and cultural hub in Midtown Manhattan where Broadway and Seventh Avenue meet. Named after the New York Times after its 1904 move to the area, it developed into the centre of the city’s theatre district and a global emblem of entertainment, advertising and urban spectacle. Notable features include the cluster of Broadway theatres, expansive illuminated digital billboards, pedestrian plazas and the long‑standing New Year’s Eve ball‑drop tradition. The public space is open day and night and generally requires no general admission to enter, though individual shows, museums and special attractions have their own timetables and may charge fees. Times Square plays a prominent role in film, television and popular culture and attracts a wide international audience year‑round. Basic accessibility measures and public transport links serve the district; specific accessibility services and admission policies differ by venue.
