The collection spans three venues in Manhattan and features more than two million pieces. Visitors can explore the museum&#8217;s collections from the roof, which overlooks Central Park. The museum also includes an ancient Egyptian temple, the Temple of Dendur, from the first century B.C. There are also plenty of free exhibitions, including a Sunday morning festival called the Frieze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The architectural diversity of New York is astounding. There are neo-Gothic wonders like the St. Patrick Cathedral and the Chrysler Building, as well as gorgeous examples of Art Deco architecture, like the 19th century houses of Greenwich Village. The city&#8217;s thriving real estate industry generates $23 billion dollars in sales every year. While visitors can spend a great deal of money on expensive real estate in the area, they can also visit free sites and admire the buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for upscale cuisine, the city&#8217;s world-class restaurants can provide you with delicious meals that are worthy of a five-star restaurant. In addition to upscale dining options, there are many ethnic eateries in the city. Rubirosa Pizza in Flatiron is a great choice for an unpretentious pizza, while Spice Symphony and Fonda in the East Village serve Mexican and Ethiopian dishes. While visiting the city, don&#8217;t forget to check out the legendary Lambs Club and Eleven Madison Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re traveling with kids, don&#8217;t forget to check out NYC Restaurant Week, which is a biannual event. Originally, the restaurant week began as a lunch-only promotion during the Democratic National Convention in 1992. Today, the program extends to four weeks and features top-notch restaurants and neighborhood eateries. With so many options, you&#8217;ll surely have a memorable time in New York City. It&#8217;s important to plan ahead when you visit so you don&#8217;t miss out on any good deals!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In New York City, the Javits Center is home to a seven-acre green roof, which is a haven for wildlife. The roof supports 29 species of birds and five species of bats. There are thousands of honeybees that make the area a hive of activity. You can also enjoy beautiful landscapes, including the iconic Little Island. There are also numerous Italian restaurants in the neighborhood, including Gaby&#8217;s Pizza in Hillside Ave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re visiting the city with kids, the Loews Regency is a good choice. Its location is convenient for the family and is just off Fifth Avenue. You can also find affordable accommodations in Brooklyn and Queens at the Hotel Indigo. Other affordable options include The Box House and the Hilton Garden, which are both very comfortable and offer excellent service. There&#8217;s something for everyone in New York City! If you&#8217;re traveling alone, consider staying near the subway. You&#8217;ll be glad you did.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met) is one of the most visited museums in the United States and ranked third in the world in 2018.
