    This place makes me swoon! Arts is my favourite subject, and the structure of this building is already art itself! I can't wait to see its contents.

    My sister visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art and declared it a must. I think there was a Van Gogh exhibit when she visited. I would have to time it to see a favorite artist of mine.
