Located just south of Central Park, in Midtown Manhattan,

時代廣場位於中城曼哈頓的中央公園南方，

Times Square is the hub of the New York Theatre District,

and one of the most iconic locales in the world.

同時也是世界上最具指標性的地點之一。

Originally Longacre Square, the name Times Square was coined

這座廣場原名朗埃克廣場，是在 1904 年

after the relocation of the New York Times to 42nd Street in 1904.

紐約時報搬遷到第 42 街後，「時代廣場」之名才應運而生。

Just weeks later, the first electrified commercial appeared,

沒幾週後，第一支電子商業廣告就現身街頭，

leading to the instantly recognisable wall-to-wall billboards of today.

延續至今形成極具視覺衝擊效果的整列廣告牆。

By day, Times Square is a bustling business hub,

白天時，時代廣場是熙攘忙碌的商業中心，

but there are still plenty of things to see and do.

不過仍有許多值得親身體驗的有趣事物。

Some of the more well-known shops include M&M's World

其中較有名的商店有M&M's巧克力世界，

and the giant 215-foot-tall Hershey's store.

還有 215 英呎高的好時巧克力商店。

The centre of Times Square is a traffic-free plaza

時代廣場的中央是車輛禁行的廣場，

where visitors can sit on one of the many multicoloured chairs

遊客可以隨意拉張五彩繽紛的椅子坐下，

After sundown, Times Square transforms into a neon wonderland.

太陽下山後，時代廣場搖身一變成為奇幻的霓虹世界。

The hundreds of illuminated billboards light the way to the Theatre district,

上百面燈火通明的廣告看板照亮了整個劇院區，

which has been selling tickets to plays and musicals since the 18th century.

自十八世紀以來，這裡就一直上演著各種舞台劇和音樂劇。
