Things I love about the Met. The steps at the front are a great place to sit and eat lunch from one of the food carts. It is a pay what you can place. The suggested fee is $20 but if you don't have that then pay what you can. It's huge so you could spend the day getting lost here, perfect if it is raining or cold outside. In the summer you need to head up to the rooftop bar as it has great views over central park.
