Metropolitan Museum of Art

On my third day in New York, I decided to take the subway to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

But the subway entrance in New York is very confusing.

It's hard just to find the entrance The route is very simple, but the guidance display is not solid like in Japan

There was a subway entrance right next to the hotel, but I couldn't even find it.

While I was walking around, I arrived at Grand Central Station.

Since it was a big deal, I decided to visit Grand Central Station and wander around there again

Other tourists come and go without knowing the entrance while looking at Google Maps

I ask the locals, but everyone who asks me says something different.

There's a young kid walking around looking at Google Maps, and I'm sure if I follow them, I'll be able to get there.

As I kept up, I was finally able to get inside.

It's the same in England and Europe, but train stands are very bleak

From there, I headed to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

I've been to the British Museum in the UK, but I felt that the content was quite different compared to that.

I didn't have much time, so I just took a quick look, but the British Museum was free, there were a lot of works, and there were plenty of places to relax and unwind.

If you're thinking of going to London or New York, I recommend England

(Art Museum)

Lunch was a hot dog in the kitchen car and relaxing in Central Park.

Before I knew it, I 💤 a nap for about an hour

I wish urban parks in Japan could have a picnic, lunch, or play on the lawn.

... Read more「メトロポリタン美術館の外観・内部って実際どんな感じ?」と気になっている人向けに、私が行ったときの体感をもう少し補足します。 まず外観。正面の階段と柱がとにかく“ザ・ニューヨーク観光”という迫力で、写真映えは間違いなしでした。噴水と階段まわりに人が多いので、正面ど真ん中の写真を撮りたいなら午前中の早めか、閉館前の時間帯のほうが落ち着く印象。階段に座って休憩している人も多く、入る前から「大きな美術館に来た!」という高揚感があります。 次に内部。館内は想像以上に広くて、全部を丁寧に見るのは時間がいくらあっても足りないと思いました。私が特に「来てよかった」と感じたのがデンダー神殿の展示室。大きな窓の向こうに緑が見えて、水面に光が反射していて、展示というより“空間を味わう”感じ。周りに座って休んでいる人もいて、歩き疲れたときの休憩スポットとしてもすごく良かったです。 彫刻のギャラリーは、天井が高くて開放感がありました。作品の数も多いので、全部を追いかけるというより「気になった作品で立ち止まる」くらいがちょうどよかったです。絵画だと、モネの「睡蓮」はやっぱり人気で人だかりができていましたが、近くで見ると色の重なりがきれいで、写真で見るのとは違う良さがありました。 行き方の小ネタも。私の場合は地下鉄の入口が本当に見つけにくくて、7 Avenue StationみたいにB・D・Eラインの表示があっても、入口の場所自体が分かりづらいことがありました。Googleマップを見ても「ここにあるはず…」で行ったり来たりしがちなので、焦らず“駅名+Entrance”の表示を探すのがコツ。グランドセントラル駅に迷い込んだのも今ではいい思い出ですが、時間に余裕を持って動くのが一番だと思います。 最後に、見学をラクにする作戦。時間が限られているなら「外観で写真→見たい展示(神殿orモネなど)を先に→彫刻ギャラリー→余った時間で周辺」という順番が回りやすかったです。外観も内部も“スケール感”が魅力なので、ぜひ歩きやすい靴で!
