The Metropolitan Museum of Art is really worth the n brush! It’s too rushed to visit in a day. It’s my limit to fully enjoy the two exhibition halls. Unfortunately, the time is limited. I have the opportunity to brush it several times in the future.

The Metropolitan Museum is one of the best museums in the world, the art collection is extremely rich, and it is a must-see attraction in New York. Unfortunately, when I went, the painting hall in Europe before the 18th century was not open.

There's way too much to see! You could probably spend a whole day in there and be just halfway done with the exhibits. It was rather crowded with a lot of children running around but the overall crowd control was pretty decent. It's not too expensive but if you really want to avoid the ticket fees, go in 30 min before closing. It's free but I'm not sure how much of it can you enjoy.

In order to lose the American people's lives in the 9/∙ 11 incident, the site of the 9/∙ 11 terrorist attack in New York, the World Trade Center site, consists of three parts - two square waterfall pools, a museum built underground with a theme, and the trees surrounding them. These trees are designed by American garden designers. I recently came here to visit, it was winter, there was a little rain, the weather was very cold, the surrounding trees have basically lost the leaves, it looks cool.

This is a little-known museum with a very rich collection. Newark is not the capital of New Jersey, and many people have a mistake. It was not safe here before, so I usually don't want to go to Newark. But the collection inside is really dazzling and often changed, and it can be imagined that quantity and quality coexist. I haven't been there for many years.

Edison National Historical Park in the small town of West Orange, in 1887, Edison Laboratory established by architect Henry Hudson Holly operated for more than 40 years, film cameras, phonograph improvements, silent movies and audio movies were invented in this laboratory, Before you visit, you can get a guide, two pages of which are their team and laboratory research inventions, the entire historical park has more than a dozen historical buildings, opened to the public in 2009, which is also the world's first film studio. The precision machinery workshop is also reserved in the building to make molds. Standing at the entrance of the building, it is quite shocking. There is an ancient house next to the park park, located in Edison's home in the park. If there is enough time, you can reserve time to visit and punch in together.
