Specialty exhibition halls

学校🏫

Metropolitan Museum of Art: Inception Space for Human Civilization This 130,000 square-metre maze hides a larger landscape than the New York skyline. It is recommended to start your time-travel from the Greek and Roman exhibition halls - the sun shines through the glass dome on the 6th century BC marble statues, the lines of the muscles of the gods are still breathing. The temple of the Danyu Temple in the Egyptian Pavilion is the most breathtaking. The complete 15th century BC temple was moved by the wealthy in 1965 and is now soaked in artificial pools, the water reflects the modern tourists, forming a absurd space-time shadow. The &quot;Pharmacist&#39;s Changing Map&quot; in the Asian exhibition hall on the second floor always sits with a thoughtful oriental face, and the Tiffany glass window in the American Wing Courtyard is always a collection of selfie net reds. The real magic happens half an hour before the closing. As the crowd disperses, you can be alone with Van Gogh&rsquo;s self-portrait on the empty European Painting Corridor, watching the twisted brush strokes of the canvas awaken in the dusk. The $25 suggested ticket is a bargain - here you buy not a ticket but a night flight permit for the human civilization of 3,000 years.

Statue of Liberty

Si  cc

This visit to the Statue of Liberty in New York is really worth it!
First of all, you can feel its shock when you approach it by boat from a distance. The great image symbolizing freedom is awe-inspiring. Both the appearance and historical significance are full of charm.

In terms of scenery and environment, the surrounding scenery is also beautiful, especially the view of the Manhattan skyline from the boat, which is so shocking! The environment on the island is clean and tidy, and it is well managed. If the weather is clear, it is especially suitable for taking photos and checking in.

In terms of fun, in addition to taking pictures and appreciating the statue itself, you can also enter the museum to learn about the construction history of the Statue of Liberty and the cultural background behind it, which is very educational.

The service is also very good. The ticket inspection, security check, and guided tour are all very professional and orderly. The guided tour materials are also very rich, and the Chinese and English explanations are very in place. It is cost-effective and strongly recommended to buy a trip with a ticket to the crown. Although there are many people, the experience is more complete!

In short, the Statue of Liberty is not only a landmark of the United States, but also a tourist attraction worth checking in for every tourist who comes to New York. If you have time, it is recommended to choose a morning boat, which will be relatively less crowded and the experience will be better.

Rockefeller Center

Karenkakao

A must-visit spot in NYC! Rockefeller Center is not just iconic&mdash;it&rsquo;s also incredibly functional. Walking through the building is a great experience, with beautiful architecture, vibrant public spaces, and plenty of food options in and around the concourse. One of the best features is the subway station right in the lower level, making it super easy to get to. And of course, it&rsquo;s home to my favorite observation deck in the city&mdash;Top of the Rock. The views are unbeatable!
