Amusement park rides at Coney Island, New York

Coney Island is a thriving residential neighbourhood with a pleasant beach, but it’s the amusement parks that have defined this Brooklyn peninsula for more than a century. A variety of parks have come and gone, and yet certain attractions that first opened early in the 20th century, such as the Wonder Wheel and the Cyclone, are not just standing, but are still in operation today.
