The Metropolitan Museum of Art is a cultural haven and the perfect place for date night, especially if you and your partner take pleasure in the more the refined things in life. There’s so much to take in, ranging from the Renaissance to Romanticism, to Modern Art. It’s a refreshing, culture-rich alternative if your Valentine’s tradition is a simple candlelit dinner or a night’s stay in a lavish hotel – or you could really indulge this year, and book all three.
You may have already visited the Met and think you’ve seen all it has to offer. One of the real highlights of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, however, is experienced when you head to the rooftop for a glass of fizz and the opportunity to see spectacular views of Manhattan. Drinks can be on the expensive side, but it’s well worth it for the gorgeous skyline of of Central Park, the upper east side and the upper west side.
