Flushing, located in the northeastern Queens borough of New York City, USA, is one of New York's most multicultural neighborhoods. As a major Asian immigrant neighborhood, Flushing is known for its rich Asian cuisine, thriving business districts, and vibrant cultural scene.
With Utopia Park to the east, Colona Park to the west, and direct access to Manhattan via subway line 7, Flushing was founded in the 17th century by Dutch colonizers, and gradually became a gathering place for Asian immigrants in the late 20th century, with Chinese accounting for more than 70% of the population, and is known as "New York's second Chinatown".
Along Main Street, Flushing is dotted with Chinese restaurants, supermarkets and stores, retaining a strong flavor of East Asian life. Landmarks such as New York's Citi Field and the Queens Botanical Garden are located here, and the annual Lunar New Year parade attracts tens of thousands of visitors. It is a place where you can experience authentic Chinese life and the cosmopolitan pulse of New York City at the same time.
As a major commercial center in Queens, Flushing is home to the largest medical center in Queens, New York Presbyterian Queens Hospital. With LaGuardia Airport just 10 minutes away and a dense network of subways and buses, Flushing has become an important regional hub in Northeastern New York.
