Introduction

The American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) is located next to Central Park in New York City, facing the Metropolitan Museum of Art across the park. It is a private non-profit organization founded 145 years ago. At the entrance of the museum stands a sculpture in honor of President Roosevelt, one of the founders of the museum, who was also an expert in natural science. The museum has 46 permanent exhibition halls with over 32 million permanent exhibits, including world-renowned dinosaur fossils and meteorites. The largest exhibit in the museum is a 29-meter, 9.5-ton model of a blue whale. The architectural design of the AMNH was the winner of the Roosevelt Memorial Architecture Design Award in New York at that time, and the Roosevelt Circular Hall has left many memories for visitors. In addition, the museum offers many tour routes and experience projects, such as the Lucy Fossil, Spider Special Exhibition, and IMAX Cinema, which are all worth seeing. It is recommended to use the official free app for personalized route guidance to make your visit more exciting.
