The Museum of Mathematics
This is one of NYC’s newest museums (opened in 2012), but it is a must-see for being the only museum in North America dedicated to mathematics. It offers various exhibits that present math theories, principles, and formulae. It is a great museum to bring kids to, providing hands-on experience on math structures and patterns.
American Museum of Natural History
The American Museum of Natural History has been around since 1869 and is most famous for its fourth-floor dinosaur exhibit that houses fossil skeletons of a T-Rex, Stegosaurus, Triceratops. A must-see is the Hall of Biodiversity which features an evolutionary timeline tracing 1,500 specimens over 3.5 billion years.
Museum of Modern Art
Founded in 1929, The MoMA has over 150,000 pieces of modern and contemporary art, from paintings and photographs to sculptures and films. A visit here won’t be complete without seeing Van Gogh’s Starry Night and Dali’s The Persistence of Memory.
Metropolitan Museum of Art
The MET is the largest art museum in the world existing under one roof and draws over 7 million visitors each year to its collections of paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts from the ancient Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians to modern works of Pollock.
