Top 6 Sights & Landmarks in Astoria, Queens

September 7, 2021 Elouise Mccaul

Queens is the most ethnically diverse area of its size on Earth, which means there's a little something for everyone. Chow down on Indian food, sit in on a traditional Irish pub music session, and dance the night away at a Puerto Rican nightclub, all of it located within a few subway stops. Queens is also the home of the Mets and the US Tennis Open, and the former home of the New York World's Fair, now Flushing Meadow-Corona Park, and Paramount Pictures, now the Museum of the Moving Image.

Welling Court Mural Project

Reviewed By SharonaDC - Astoria, United States

This is a great spot to wander around and take in the eclectic collection of murals. From whimsical to wise, the artists have given us a chance to peek into their souls and experience their art in a unique surrounding. From here, you can head to Socrates Sculpture Park for more art. So much to see in Queens!

As we are all itching to responsibly get out of the house for fresh air, I am happy to report Socrates Sculpture Park is open. It feature interesting modern sculptures, overlooks the water and offers some nice green space for solo exercise.
