Historic Churches: Harlem is home to many historic churches, including the Abyssinian Baptist Church and the Greater Refuge Temple, which have played significant roles in the African American community and the civil rights movement.
Apollo Theater: The Apollo Theater, located in Harlem, is one of the most famous music halls in the United States. It has hosted legendary performances by artists such as Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, James Brown, and Aretha Franklin.
