This museum, a branch of the Metropolitan
Museum of Art, is devoted to the architecture and art
of Medieval Europe. High above the Hudson River within Fort
Tryon Park, you'll get spectacular views just outside
the museum itself and a rich experience within its walls.
Both Art and Nature Lovers couldn't possibly go wrong with
this NYC Location considering how much beauty lies outside
of its walls. There are the gardens of the surrounding park
as well as all the wonderful hikes up and down hills with
plenty of benches to rest along certain parts of the park.
Of course as forewarned on other pages for sights located
along the Hudson River, remember, what goes down must come
back up. Thus, the deeper within Fort Tryon Park you go, the
further uphill you'd have to climb later on.
Getting there by subway: A to 190th
St station take you directly there.
#4 bus at the station will take
you down to the museum
