Metropolitan Museum of Art: Inception Space for Human Civilization This 130,000 square-metre maze hides a larger landscape than the New York skyline. It is recommended to start your time-travel from the Greek and Roman exhibition halls - the sun shines through the glass dome on the 6th century BC marble statues, the lines of the muscles of the gods are still breathing. The temple of the Danyu Temple in the Egyptian Pavilion is the most breathtaking. The complete 15th century BC temple was moved by the wealthy in 1965 and is now soaked in artificial pools, the water reflects the modern tourists, forming a absurd space-time shadow. The &quot;Pharmacist&#39;s Changing Map&quot; in the Asian exhibition hall on the second floor always sits with a thoughtful oriental face, and the Tiffany glass window in the American Wing Courtyard is always a collection of selfie net reds. The real magic happens half an hour before the closing. As the crowd disperses, you can be alone with Van Gogh&rsquo;s self-portrait on the empty European Painting Corridor, watching the twisted brush strokes of the canvas awaken in the dusk. The $25 suggested ticket is a bargain - here you buy not a ticket but a night flight permit for the human civilization of 3,000 years.

This visit to the Statue of Liberty in New York was really worth it! First of all, you can feel the shock from the distance when you are near the boat, and the great image of freedom is awe-inspiring. Both the appearance and the historical significance are full of charm. In terms of scenery and environment, the surrounding scenery is also beautiful, especially from the boat overlooking the Manhattan skyline, too shocking! The environment on the island is clean and tidy and well managed. If the weather is sunny, it is especially suitable for taking pictures and punching in. In terms of fun, in addition to taking pictures and admiring the statue itself, you can also enter the museum to learn about the history of the construction of the Statue of Liberty and the cultural background behind it, which is very educational. The service is also very good, ticket inspection, security inspection, guide are very professional and orderly, the guide information is also very rich, Chinese and English explanations are in place. Cost-effective, it is highly recommended to buy the itinerary with the ticket of the crown, although there are many people, the experience is more complete! In short, the Statue of Liberty is not only a landmark in the United States, but also a attraction worth checking in for every visitor to New York. If you have time, it is recommended to choose the boat in the morning, there will be relatively fewer people and a better experience.

Rockefeller Center

Karenkakao

A must-visit spot in NYC! Rockefeller Center is not just iconic&mdash;it&rsquo;s also incredibly functional. Walking through the building is a great experience, with beautiful architecture, vibrant public spaces, and plenty of food options in and around the concourse. One of the best features is the subway station right in the lower level, making it super easy to get to. And of course, it&rsquo;s home to my favorite observation deck in the city&mdash;Top of the Rock. The views are unbeatable!
