The Best Museums in New York City, From the Met to the New York Transit Museum | Condé Nast Traveler

"For nearly a century and a half, this Gothic-Revival landmark on Central Park has been the cultural epicenter of New York City, with forward-thinking shows and a vast permanent collection. Step into the Great Hall amid a ceaseless parade of museumgoers and feel the sense of possibility; if time is short, beeline to the Temple of Dendur, a soaring 2,000-year-old Egyptian temple (the only complete one in the Western Hemisphere), and keep an eye on the revolving trove of exhibitions, from the Costume Institute’s annual offering to deep dives on great artists." - Charlie Hobbs, Andrea Whittle
