About Queens
There's something for everyone in Queens, NYC's easternmost borough. Forest Hills combines urban conveniences with tree-lined streets and Tudor style homes. Foodies flock to vibrant Jackson Heights for a variety of cuisines like the chana masala at Jackson Diner or squash pizza at The Queensboro. Sports fans get stoked! You can catch the New York Mets at Citifield or watch the US Open at USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. In the mood for a movie? The drive-in theater at The Bel-Aire Diner in Astoria is a retro treat (that’s free!). Afterward, grab a brew to go from the Bohemian Hall & Beer Garden. While every borough has its share of outstanding museums, the art hub in Long Island City, Queens includes MoMA PS1 — one of the country's largest and oldest cultural institutions. Nearby there's plenty of waterfront space to enjoy; a choice spot is Hunters Point South Park. During the summer, Rockaway shines. It's arguably the most famous neighborhood in the borough thanks to "Rockaway Beach," a tune by Queens-bred punk band The Ramones. The oceanside community is a top NYC attraction — not to mention home to the only two surf beaches — don't forget the sunblock.
