Cartier Bresson Moma

New York is home to a number of popular tourist destinations. If you haven't done your research, it could take you hours to decide which places would most likely tickle your fancy. If you're into arts and history, however, there are two places that would stand out in your options: the American Museum of Natural History and the Museum of Modern Art.

Each of these tourist spots is famous in its own way. Each offers a variety of activities that is just as memorable as the ones the other offers. It's simply a matter of personal choice that would make one more enjoyable that the other. Let me point out some major differences between these 2 famous museums.

We, start with the Museum of Modern Art also known as MoMA. This holds renowned art collections from world-class painters like Vincent van Gogh who created The Starry Night (1889) and Claude Monet who painted Reflections of Clouds on the Water Lilies (1914-1926).

The Museum of Modern Art is also known to house an unparalleled art exhibits that offer every visitor a comprehensive overview of the modern and the contemporary eras, from innovative European paintings and sculptures of the 1880's up to today's films, designs, and other aspects of performing arts.

The museum's amenities and galleries are just as marvellous as the precious collections it holds. The scenic elements inside include the relaxing ambiance of the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden; a combination of modern sculptures, fountains and seasonal plantings. William Kentridge's Five Themes collection is an exhibit that features ambivalent yet alluring subjects that are surely worth seeing. Other must-see venues include Picasso's Themes and Variations, Henri Cartier-Bresson's, The Modern Century, and the P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center.

As for the American Museum of Natural History, it is known for its modern and historic galleries and exhibits. The museum is also voted as the number 1 attraction in New York by a family travel guide. The museum also has the most significant collections of dinosaur fossils in the world.

The American Museum of Natural History has galleries and exhibits that will give you an exciting experience, such as the planetarium space show, Rose Center for Earth and Space, Hayden Planetarium Space Show, Anne and Bernard Spitzer Hall of Human Origins, and the Fossil Halls that will make you marvel every time you drop by.

Given the different levels of art that each of these offer, I'd say both the American Museum of Natural History and the Museum of Modern Art are worth taking a tour! They may have different exhibits and collections, but then they can offer a great time and experience that will make anyone keep coming back for more!
