Start spreading the news, Im leaving today
I want to be a part of it - new york, new york
These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it - new york, new york
I wanna wake up in a city, that doesnt sleep
And find Im king of the hill - top of the heap

And find Im a number one top of the list, king of the hill
A number one

Im gonna make a brand new start of it - in old new york
And if I can make it there, Im gonna make it anywhere
It up to you - new york new york

This 2.5 acre area of Central Park is dedicated to the memory of John Lennon and named after his famous song Strawberry Fields Forever in 1981 by New York City law under Mayor Ed Koch.
The mosaic is a replica of a famous mosaic in Pompeii and was a gift from Naples, Italy. The only change from the original is the inclusion of "Imagine" in the center of the mosaic.
Once a fairly nondescript area stretching from 71st to 74th streets, it was transformed into its present, superbly landscaped condition through a gift from Yoko Ono. She presented Strawberry Fields to the park as a memorial to her husband, the late John Lennon, after his murder in front of the Dakota apartment house on Central Park West in 1980. It was named not only for the Beatles’ well-known song, “Strawberry Fields Forever,” but also for an orphanage in Liverpool, England here as a child Lennon played with friends who lived there.
Are there any actual strawberries in Strawberry Fields? well, it seems that plantings of strawberry bushes have not been successful due to a scarcity of sun in this quarter of the park. Only a few scattered bushes are to be found among its rich variety of shrubs. An official plaque calls the site a “Garden of Peace.”

The Tomb of Asif Khan is a mausoleum located in Shahdara Bagh in Lahore, Punjab. It was constructed for the Mughal statesman Abul-Hasan ibn Mirza Ghiyas Beg, who was titled Asif Khan.
Asif Khan was the brother of Empress Nur Jahan, and father of Arjumand Bano Begum, who became the consort of Shah Jahan under the name Mumtaz Mahal.
In 1636, he was elevated as Khan-e-Khana and commander-in-chief and a year later became the governor of Lahore. Asif Khan died on 12 June 1641 in a battle against the forces of rebel Raja Jagat Singh. His tomb was commissioned to be built in the Shahdara tomb complex in Lahore by Shah Jahan. It was built to the west of the tomb of Jahangir, facing it. It took four years and was completed in 1645 at a cost of 0.3 million rupees.
Some historians believe that Maharajah Ranjit Singh plundered his tomb for its marble and sandstone to be used in his building projects.
Today the tomb and the walls as well as the main gate are dilapidated. The tomb, along with the adjacent Akbari Sarai and the Tomb of Jahangir, is on the tentative list as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
