A great NYC park for people-watching, this was the site of previous World Fairs and offers visitors bicycle paths, the Queens Wildlife Conservation Center, a carousel, freshwater fishing, indoor ice-skating rink and marina.

Visitors to this technology center learn about audio, imaging, robotics, design and network through interactive exhibits, and are directed through the experience by "b.b. wonderbot," a telepresence robot.

Big screen simulated thrill ride located on the second floor of the Empire State Building.

A "virtual-reality plaza" where you can wage intergalactic war, flee ghosts and deep-sea dive - at least as long as the ride lasts.
