Central Park
In Central Park, beside the famous Metropolitan Museum,
there are lakes, two outdoor skating rinks, a swimming pool, carrousel, Central Park Zoo,
Wildlife Conservation Center, a strawberry field and others. Limited by my sinew, I
did not have any extra energy to walk around this big park but passed it by on bus.
Location: extending from 59th to 110th streets. And from Fifth Ave.
to Central Park W.
 Cathedral of St. John the Divine (Episcopal)
It was built entirely of stone. Inside of the cathedral, you can enjoy the views
of fantastic huge colorful stained glass all around the walls and the fine designs of
shrine.

 Metropolitan
Museum
Located inside of the Central Park, Metropolitan
Museum is one of the greatest museums of the world. The collections include Egyptian,
Greek, Roman art and much more. Since I was so tired at the time I visited the museum, I
could not pay too much close attention to most of the marvelous collections.
However, it still took me more than 4 hours to walk around those exhibition halls. It is a
must go for sure. If I have a chance to visit Manhattan again, I will go to this
museum.

collections are hung along the spiraled walkway. In the special designed building, there
are lots of great Prints like Picasso
's.
