Great suggestions, though I’m saddened that the Museum of Chinese in America wasn’t on the list. It’s a great museum that details Chinese American history. And it’s the largest museum of its kind in America.

Here’s the website if you want to check it out: http://www.mocanyc.org/

It’s free on Thursdays too!

Sweet list. Some places I didn’t even know about, although I did however make it to City Reliquary, by accident, but nonetheless. A small, yet very interesting little museum though.

Check out this perfume museum/gallery in Brooklyn. It’s one of my favorite places to recommend for people looking for something different to do in NYC.

Go to his website for directions.
