Very nice museum.. if you have kids, it is ideal to spend time there. It is interactive and they can learn a lot ! - Poly Wood
Be sure to check out the whole place - I know it sounds daunting, but it is SO worth it and my kids loved it. - Matt Debes
The David H. Koch Dinos exhibit by far outdoes any other that I've seen! AMNH has an entire whole floor of dinos! Amazing hierarchies throughout the exhibit. They really condense a lot of information - ℳ????????♍
It's amazing. But as many signatures item, it overhelms a bit the whole museum. What I mean is: go to natural history museum for itself, and enjoy t-rex as one of many item there. - Vito Tartaglia
fantastic displays with detailed paintings and clean taxonomy. adjacent to the overwhelmingly educational Hall of Biodiversity - nikki
