Ode to commercialism

Times Square is New York’s ode to commercialism. There are probably any places on Earth that is more filled with advertisements, corporate logos and all other commercial paraphernalia.

If you like that, Times Square is just the place for you. You can stare the endless rows and columns of blinking lights, news and stock information flashing on the walls, advertisements of all kinds and generally feeling being fast-forwarded in life.

Besides the lights, Times Square has a plethora of shops and restaurants to spend some time and money. Most of them are part of a chain, so don’t expect to see anything too special. The shops, however, have focused a lot in showing off and some of them are really worth of visit.
