Everything I’ve written about The MET on New York Dearest, in one place. It’s on two of my lists, Best things to do in Manhattan and My favorite photo spots in Central Park. Below you’ll find every list it’s on with what I wrote there. At the end, where it is and what’s near.

Two of my listsBefore you accuse me of steering away from the best photo spots in Central Park I have news for you, the MET is actually IN the park.
What I wrote thereFold it away
Before you accuse me of steering away from the best photo spots in Central Park I have news for you, the MET is actually IN the park. So technically paying a visit to the MET for a photoshoot in the park is right on par with this guide.
But if you don’t want to pay for a ticket (which I highly encourage you do) the iconic MET steps alone are enough to warrant a visit. Let your inner Gossip Girl shine as you visit one of the best photo spots in Central Park.
