The Metropolitan Museum of Art (the Met) is one of my favorite museums in New York City. A joy to explore in all seasons, there’s something truly special about the holidays when the museum plays host to the most unique Christmas Tree in New York City.

The magnificent 20-foot blue spruce is laden with silk-robed angels looming over an 18th century Neapolitan Nativity scene. Take your time admiring the elaborate scene, the details are mind-boggling.
