Whether you revisiting a wing which you've seen before or visiting a new exhibit, the Met never fails to awe. They have some impressive exhibits, like The Temple of Dendur or their re-creation of a Ming Dynasty Garden, transporting you to a time long ago in a different country. The Byzantine Wing never fails to give me a thrilling chill, with their stained glass and spiritually inspiring works of art.
This museum always makes me think that much harder of ancient cultures and beliefs more I traditionally would, because the exhibits have so much vitality and life to them. The building itself is impressive and to give thoughtful consideration to the each wing requires more than one day. But all the more excuse for me to keep coming back and back again.
