The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York houses a vast collection of nearly two million pieces of art and antiquities, spanning from modern European art to ancient Greek and Egyptian art. Visitors can explore the museum through a private guided tour. The museum showcases five millennia of artistic history, including the original Wall Street bank front, the Robert Lehman collection, and the Egyptian temple of Dendur. Exhibits are open until closing, and visitors can visit The Cloisters uptown. The Met is open later on Friday and Saturday nights for a more private experience.
