USA: Times Square in New York

On Monday I got a postcard from the USA which a friend of mine bought when she visited New York and sent it from the airport.

New York is a city at the East Coast of the United States in the State of New York and with more than 8000000 inhabitants the most populous city of the United States. New York consists of the five Boroughs Manhattan, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island. New York is a important financial centre, a global city and the seat of many international concerns and organisations such as the United Nations.

The card shows many impressions of the Times Square. The Times Square is located at the crossroads of the Broadway and the Seventh Avenue and is named after the New York Times located at the Times Square. The Times Square is the centre of the theatre district Broadway. The Times Square is famous for the many illuminated advertising.
