MET

On November 16^th, four of my friends and I visited the MET. Although I have visited this museum before it seems that you learn something new every time you visit. We visited numerous exhibits such as the Roman, Greek, Egyptian, American, and the Mid evil times Exhibit as well.  I found that learning about the history of civilizations and cultures from all over the world was very interesting, especially because I was able to compare all the similarities and differences from my own culture. Visiting the museum with my friends also was a great experience because we got to experience new things as a group and provided each other with new information. It was a great decision to visit the MET because of its beautiful architecture and exhibits. My favorite exhibit was Ancient Greek because I had always been interested in Greek mythology as a child. I found it extremely intriguing to actually see artifacts from a country I had a deep interest in. Although I’ve seen this exhibit before, visiting it again as a young man enabled me to appreciate the history more and connect mythology to the culture of the ancient Greeks. However, I would’ve also liked to see more exhibits from different countries which means I will defiantly making another trip to the MET. All in all, my friends and I had a wonderful time and I’m sure each of us took home one fact we found extremely interesting, especially because Veton is a walking history textbook.
