The Metropolitan Art Museum was one of the best visits I've done. Its collection is quite impressive. I have mostly visited the Egyptian sectian and the European section composed of paintings for the most part. Favourite ones: David, El Greco, Panini (I didn't know it before, this Italian painter is impressive, its paintings are full of amazing details, especially the one representing the "Basilique St Pierre de Rome"). Some culture in the heart of NYC, it feels good to me.
