MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE
DIRECTOR OF QEDC
Aug. 15, 2021
Dear Friends:
More than 30 museums and
cultural institutions. More
than 50 neighborhoods.
Restaurants offering more
than 100 distinct cuisines.
Where to begin?
Queens In Your Pocket will point
the way. There is so much to explore in the world’s
most diverse county. Our parks range from wooded tracts to
beautiful beaches. Historic homes and museums showcase
the past, present, and future of the United States. The best
professional tennis and baseball are played here. And then there’s
what makes us famous: the food! Where else can you sample
sushi, roti, steak frites, bubble tea, quail eggs, pizza, and many
more items on the same street?
This guidebook will help you explore our borough, which the
Lonely Planet travel media company designated as the best
tourism destination in the United States in 2015. Read it and
remember: “It’s in Queens!”
Enjoy.
Seth
