It is located on the western portion of Long Island and is bordered by the East River to the northwest, the Harlem River to the northwest, and the Atlantic Ocean to the south. The borough is known for its vibrant communities, including Astoria, Flushing, and Jamaica, each with distinct cultural backgrounds and offerings.
Queens is home to several major attractions, including the iconic Unisphere in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, and the Queens Museum.
