Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)

The Museum of Modern Art — or 'MoMA' as it's known by locals — is the most influential modern art museum in the world. It houses one of the best collections of contemporary masterpieces and is an inspiring place to spend an afternoon or an entire day.

The gorgeous building is worth a visit alone — it's filled with light and boasts cutting-edge architecture. Use your pass for admission and enjoy modern art masterpieces like Vincent van Gogh’s “The Starry Night,” Claude Monet’s “Water Lilies,” and Andy Warhol’s “Campbell’s Soup Cans.”

And, when it comes to the classics, you've got pieces from Frida Kahlo, Jacob Lawrence, Edward Hopper, Jackson Pollock, and many more.

After you've explored the interiors, head to the outdoor garden to relax among the plants and sculptures. In addition to its premier permanent collection, the Museum of Modern Art regularly showcases a range of special multimedia exhibitions too, so check the schedule before you plan your visit.
