The Flatiron Building is one of the most famous historic landmarks in New York. The
iconic twenty-one story building, best known for its triangular shape, was one of the
early spectacular high rises that have come to define Manhattan.
The Flatiron Building was constructed between 1901 and 1903 at the intersection of
Broadway and Fifth Avenue, at the time one of the most prominent locations in New York
city, It is situated near Madison Square at the end of the Ladies’ Mile, one of Manhattan’s
most important shopping district at the turn of the nineteenth century.
The building probably featured on most postcards than any other building of its time. The
whole area, the Flatiron district, was even named after the building. Originally the
Flatiron Building featured on observation deck on the top floor, but taller buildings have
taken over his function. It is still, however, a popular tourist attraction, and one of the
most photographed landmarks in New York.
I had always dreamed about going to Hawaii. I thought it was a paradise. It was the end of
the semester when my parents told me that we are going to Hawaii for one week in our holidays
next month.
Two days later we left home and headed toward our first destination, the Big Island of
Hawaii. As soon as we reached there after a long journey, I was stunned by the beautiful scenic
views that I only saw in pictures. I was totally lost in the scenic views that I forgot to blink my
eyes. We stayed in the 5-star hotel in front of the beach.
Next day we hired a helicopter for a trip to see volcano. It was simply amazing. We stayed
in the Big Island for four days, and then we went to the island of Maui for four days. We did so
many activities which included jet ski, scuba diving, parasailing, etc. We also watched the
sunrise of Kalekala’s summit. It was very romantic. At last one the best things we did in Hawaii
was to drive on the Hana Highway. It was the most amazing and spectacular experience of my
life that I was stunned by God’s creation of heaven-like place on earth. The highway has 600-
plus turns, 50 one-lane bridges and breathtaking views that alternate between mountain streams
and soaring sea cliffs, the Hana Highway is less a roadway than an event in itself.
Our journey ended. On our way back we traveled by plane again. During the trip I thought,
“those days were amazing and unforgettable. I wish I had more days to spend over there”
