No city offers as much cultural diversity as New York, and no city in this country can boast of such a vast array of museums. Nearly 150 museums grace the five boroughs, ranging from broad themes such as natural history and art to specific cultural, ethnic, and historical collections, including modern art, Jewish culture, and the city's own transit system.

The city's museums take you on an eye-opening educational foray into the past, the present, and, in some cases, the future. Unlike those boring class museum trips of years ago, today's museum fuses the knowledge of well-trained guides with the excitement of modern technology to best present everything from dinosaur bones to air force fighter jets.
