Holy huge museum Holy huge museum, Batman! I had no clue how gargantuan the building is. It would truly take at least a full two days to be able to see and appreciate all that is on display. Fortunately - my museum buddy and I have similar tastes in what we'd want to see and what we really don't care for - so we walked through and opted to miss several wings completely. We had a little less than four hours to spend - which is absolutely not enough time - but packed a lot of quality into that time. An absolute highlight is th... read more

You should go at least once Disclaimer: I hate museums. Museums are generally painful for me. And to have to pay to get into one, well, that just takes the cake. But I have to say that even for museum loathers such as myself, this is one that must be visited. It's huge and it's got so many types of art. Even if you hate museums like me, go for the sake of being able to say you've been to the Met before. Because if you've been to NY and haven't been to the Met, everyone else around you will shoot you an evil look and think it... read more

Unparalled There is no substituion for the Met. If you only have a few hours to spend in New York City, this is the place to be. Having traveled to many other countries and frequented their museums, I have yet to find any other place that offers such an amazing artistic experience. This is definitely the place for both art and non-art lovers, since there is something for everyone. Although you could feasibly spend an entire day being here, if you only have a few hours to spend, your best bet is to check out the current exhib... read more

The Met The The Metropolitan Museum of Art is considered one of the must sees of New York City in terms of culture. There is something there for everyone, whether you are an avid art fan or not. One does not need to have an appreciation for fine art to enjoy the exhibits at this museum. Admission is inexpensive.

More than paintings The best part of this is the Egyptian art wing. There are mummies and sculptures on display. The room with the lake is beautiful. The knights and armor exhibit is very impressive. The armor is displayed fully assembled so you get a sense of what they really looked like when going to battle. I also liked the collection of musical instruments since you can see how the modern instruments evolved into what they are today. There are so many different types of art in the museum that everyone will surely finfd s... read more

High Art! The Metropolitan is the "grand dame" of the New York city Museums. She is steady and true, and you will never run out of things to see here. My children and I love to come here and explore our old favorites along with the constantly changing new exhibits. The place is massive, so it is best to just focus on a room or floor and plan on coming back. Stop at the information booth - especially if coming with children. You might be lucky enough to sign up for a free class, or just get information on the exhibits you are... read more

The Best Museum In Town. This was a great experience for me and my children. Everything from the outside to the inside was so large and amazing the kids were impressed. They also have the best displays from all around the world. I think this is a great educational experience for any child or adult. I will be going again.
