    Flushing, Queens

    On and around Main St in Flushing, Queens, you’ll find a wonderfully hectic array of items both Chinese and Korean. The Flushing Mall (718-762-9000; 133-31 39th Ave at Prince St; 10am-8pm) is an indoor collection of East Asian items, though the excellent food court is the real draw. Browse the area outside, stopping at spots like Magic Castle (136-82 39th Ave), packed with Korean pop culture such as stickers, CDs, hair clips and jewelry, and Shun An Tong Health Herbal Co (135-24 Roosevelt Ave, off Main St), one of the oldest Chinese herbalists in the ’hood. Take the 7 to Main St–Flushing.
