Located in Flushing Meadows Park, the zoo is a hidden gem of Queens, small and quiet. Good for younger kids, under 10. Be sure to see the Aviary.

Arts & Culture

The museum is an art and educational center. Focuses more on contemporary, modern, urban and historical exhibits, in my opinion. Caters perfectly to the international, ethnically and culturally diverse population of Queens.
