If you’re headed to New York for some relaxing vacation time in the next couple months, try to squeeze a little knowledge into your summer visit. A visit to N.Y.’s American Museum of Natural History is a great way to unwind, while at the same time learn a bit about the world that was here before smartphones and the Internet.
You can find the American Museum of Natural History in Central Park West at 79th St., New York, N.Y. 10024, which is only a short drive to make in your NY rental car from Edge Auto Rental.
Exhibitions:
There are plenty of great exhibits to enjoy at the museum this summer. Here’s a sample of just a few…
Frogs: A Chorus of Colors: With one of the largest frog collections in the world, the American Museum of Natural History explores these exceptionally diverse amphibians in this exhibit. Focusing on topics like genetic diversity, reproduction, frog-friendly ecosystems, adaptation, and much more, this cross-section of frog life is sure to engage and entertain you and your family.
Whales: Giants of the Deep: The focus of this exhibit is the world’s largest mammal – the whale. The exhibition focuses on topics including whale evolution, biology, and the peoples who used (and some who continue to use) whales as their primary source of food, income, and recreation.
Journey to the Stars: Not every exhibit at the museum is full of frogs and whales. This special presentation, narrated by Whoopi Goldberg, gives visitors a chance to view the stars from different angles and witness their lifecycle from the star nursery to the black-hole grave.
