For history buffs, The American Museum of Natural History is dedicated to exploring human cultures, the natural world and the universe. It was first built in 1869 and today has a full-time scientific staff that oversees the collection of plants, animals, fossils, minerals, meteorites and frozen tissue from extinct animals. Those wanting to learn more about New York should visit Museum of the City of New York, where you can explore its heritage of diversity, unique character and how it became to be one of the most incredible cities in the world. A somber, yet important museum is the National 9/11 Memorial and Museum, which documents the impact and significance of the day, while saluting to the brave service men and women who sacrificed their lives on that day, as well as honoring those who perished.
