The Metropolitan Museum of Art is a stunning art hall with a rich collection of art to linger. Whether it is ancient Egyptian statues, European Renaissance paintings, or Asian calligraphy and porcelain, each hall is like a window to different civilizations. Standing in the Egyptian Pavilion and watching the fully restored Danyu Temple is enough to marvel at the exquisiteness of ancient craftsmanship. In the European Painting Pavilion, Van Gogh&#39;s &quot;Rye and Cypress&quot; and Monet&#39;s &quot;Waterlily&quot; are near, and each one is full of vitality. The armor and weapons exhibition hall is like entering the world of medieval knights, those finely carved armor seems to still tell the story of the battlefield. Even after a whole day of shopping, I feel that there is not enough time. Every time I enter a hall, I can find new surprises and I am reluctant to leave.

One of the must-see attractions when traveling to the United States. The process of landing on the island is also very interesting. The photos taken around the island are very good. The staff on the boat have a good service attitude. There is also a museum on it. We spent a wonderful afternoon there.

Rockefeller Center is a national historic landmark in the heart of Midtown Manhattan. Home to Top of the Rock Observation Deck, NBC Studios, Radio City Music Hall and much more. Shop, dine and explore at one of New York&#39;s most inspiring locations.We chose to come here to the Rockefeller centre so we could see the empire state building and it certainly didn&rsquo;t disappoint. Amazing views and the staff were great. It was cold though so if visiting in March or earlier makes sure you&rsquo;re well wrappe
