Where is Coney Island?

Coney Island is located at the southern tip of Brocklen District, new york. As the earliest large-scale amusement city in the United States, it experienced the peak of the early 20th century in 120 years, and the public security deteriorated and declined extremely at the turn of 1980s and 1990s, which led to the revival of the new millennium. Disney and other emerging modern super amusement parks did steal her thunder, but the Ferris wheel, pirate ship, roller coaster, carousel, observation tower and many amusement facilities were thrilling and interesting, which still made adults and children enjoy themselves. Facing the vast Atlantic Ocean, a high-quality beach that can accommodate thousands of people; There are also famous traditional carnival celebrations, from the international hot dog eating contest to the mermaid parade, which have always attracted many tourists.

My husband and I like the summer scenery here. Strolling along the wooden plank road by the sea, there is the vast sea on one side and snack bars and fast food restaurants on the other. The air smells of ice cream, roasted corn and coffee beans, and the salty taste of sea water. There is an indescribable summer pleasure.

Every June, from summer to the first Saturday in the future, it is also the day when New York State officially opens ocean swimming. A mermaid parade was held in Coney Island to welcome summer, rain or shine. Hundreds of voluntary participants dressed in their own elaborate costume props dressed as Poseidon, Queen Shen, mermaids of various shapes and various marine life; Start from the boardwalk by the sea, perform all the way, and slowly turn around the city streets.

There are men, women and children in the parade, most of whom are young women, all dressed in sea clothes and fish costumes, and they are unconventional. Their gait and dance have their own characteristics, and most of them show their naked bodies unscrupulously, in order to praise the sea, the beach, the arrival of summer and the fairy tales of Coney Island. There is a beautiful pregnant woman with a big belly, walking slowly with her husband. There are fashionable young mothers with babies, cute children dressed as fish, and topless girls wearing Japanese kimonos singing and dancing. Everyone will scream with excitement when they see a particularly bold and outstanding beauty.

On this day, Coney Island was crowded with tourists from the United States and even all over the world to feast their eyes. Countless cameras aim at those rare and unique wonderful pictures in the world and keep shooting. Some tourists run to the middle of the line, and the "fish" will be happy to stop and pose intimately to let you have a good time.

The passionate and creative mermaid parade is an ingenious and beautiful landscape in new york metropolis where immigrants gather. It can be called a brilliant hymn of loving life, nature, diversity and harmony.

Husband moved his heart and said, let's sign up for the next parade. But I'm not ready to be that crazy. Isn't being an audience also an investment?

After the parade, music, dance, street performances, and open-air exhibitions such as antique cars were followed. At this time, all kinds of entertainment facilities are in operation, and everyone chooses their own hobbies and enjoys them. There are long queues in many places. Listening to the screams at the top of my lungs and watching the frightened expressions of people on the pirate ship in distress, I think they are fully experiencing the dangerous feeling of sailing in the stormy waves.

I'm afraid of climbing mountains. I don't want to play ferries, pirate ships and other entertainment, but I have suffered a lot. I remember going to Coney Island with my husband a few years ago. I saw many people queuing up, climbing stairs and getting into a big cylindrical room. They looked mysterious, so they bought tickets and followed the crowd. Someone instructed everyone to stand against the wall, feet slightly apart, unable to move, and then closed the door and left. Then the lights dimmed, the room began to turn faster and faster, and suddenly the floor fell and the foot became a dark abyss. Everyone is suspended by the centrifugal force of high-speed rotation and attached to the cylinder wall. At this time, the inside of the body was squeezed strangely, and everyone could not help but shout in horror. I closed my eyes in fear. At this point, I was at the mercy of fate. After a while, I finally stopped turning, the floor rose back to my feet, and everything was restored; But it's hard for everyone to bear. Some people sit on the ground, looking at each other's pale faces, crying and laughing. This thing is like throwing people into a washing machine and stirring them quickly. It's like going through a life-and-death struggle. I wonder if people with heart disease can eat it? Later, when I put my clothes into the washing machine, I often think of the terrible experience of spending money to find bitter food. Go back a year later, and the equipment has disappeared. I don't know if it was unsafe or an accident.

At the junction of Surf Avenue and Stilwell Avenue in Coney Island (Nathan's); Restaurant, specializing in hot dogs, opened on 19 16. Nowadays, hot dogs have become one of Americans' favorite fast food, and Nathan's chain stores are all over the country. For 90 years, the United States has held the "International Hot Dog Eating Competition" here every year on Independence Day, and the winner can enjoy crispy and delicious hot dogs for a year for free. At that time, there will be a sea of people, accompanied by fast-paced and high-decibel music, and the contestants will show their magical powers and broadcast live on TV. I don't know why, for more than ten years, the big stomach king has been Japanese, and the highest record so far is 12 minutes to eat 53.5 hot dogs.

Go east along Coney Island boardwalk to the nearby new york Aquarium. The design of each theme pavilion there is quite modern and the exhibition content is quite rich. In the afternoon, there are wonderful programs such as California sea lion performance and shark feeding.

Coney Island has convenient transportation, is the terminal of four subway lines in new york, and has a huge subway maintenance center. In terms of the number of tracks, it can be said that it is the largest subway terminal hub in the world. No wonder some people call it Mecca for subway fans.

I have a dream: If I win the lottery, I will turn Coney Island into the first-class beauty of new york again. With the arrival of the new century, without waiting for me to start work, the New York City Government and people from all walks of life came up with a solution and raised funds to carry out a remarkable renovation project, which injected new vitality into Coney Island.

Now, the old subway station has been demolished, the most modern subway station in new york has been built, and its huge rooftop solar power station is on the ceiling. Four new stages were built along the beach path. From Memorial Day in May to Labor Day in September, concerts, celebrations and colorful performances are often held here on weekends, including beach movies, magic, star softball, arm-wrestling competitions, fireworks, skydiving and laser performances. Every year in mid-July, the Sai Ren Music Festival sponsored by the best-selling magazine Voice of the Country is also fixed here. Coney Island was originally a scenic spot for shooting. In recent years, film festivals have been held here. This year 10 is the sixth time, and the content will be expanded from short films to feature films.

With the great improvement of public security in new york, the only thing that scares people about Coney Island now is the whirlwind wheel that brings joy and excitement, which has washed away the notoriety of rampant gang warfare crimes.

Bicycles and roller skating rinks will be built there, and access to the beach will be increased, so that the elderly, the disabled and families pushing strollers can easily enter the beach. The 12 1 lamppost on the trail was replaced by antique cast iron lamppost, and colored ribbons and flower baskets were hung, which matched the 600 European benches added on the wooden plank road and made the beach trail more interesting. Coupled with the constantly renovated amusement park and the nearby aquarium, it is not hard to imagine that Coney Island Beach was becoming a good place for new york City last weekend.

"The golden age of Coney Island is not the past, but the present and the future."
