MFA is one of the three largest art galleries in the United States, and has a lot of wonderful works. As a result, the admission fee is also more expensive than other art museums, but I was able to save the admission fee after I went to Juneteenth commemorative free admission day! You can check the admission schedule on the website, so it is recommended to check in advance. Especially Monet's works were so pretty!

This isnt a museum to walk around and see artefacts. You watch a story of the Salem witch trials and then get the evolution of the witch. It’s a good overall experience, but not what I expected. Tip! The entry ticket gets you access to discounts for other things around the town

The seven-corner building in Hawthorne is still a book, and the building is famous for its original work. The building area is not small, and some details are beautifully carved

The museums around Boston that are worth punching in, naturally have to mention this Peabody Essex Museum. For this museum, it is worth a special trip from Boston to Salem town for 40 minutes. This museum is also the oldest museum in Xuancun, United States. A "flying house" in the museum also made the museum famous. The only Qing Dynasty residential building in the United States, the museum spent 7 years moving this house from China. The wooden parts, bricks, furniture, The stone boards and other pieces were all shipped to the United States together, and each part was marked. It was opened to the public in 2003 to visit the museum, which also houses a variety of Asian cultural artworks. Few museums in the United States see such a large number of Asian collections. It was still more shocking, and when I came to visit, I also happened to catch up with the Forbidden City Cultural Relics Exhibition, which was more cordial when I visited. Their family will launch special exhibitions with different themes from time to time. Before visiting, you can log in to the official website to check the current exhibition theme.

There are many incredibly good works and the atmosphere was so good that it was an individually built museum. Botanical garden? garden? It's a place made with a concept, so it's good to take pictures :) It's one of the museums I want to go to next time because the concept of the garden changes every time!

When I was in this museum by my little friend Amway, I didn’t care at first. I felt that the museum on campus was difficult to create too high a surprise. I didn’t expect to be beaten in the face when I went there. I was very happy to visit with my friends. I couldn’t stop at all. , All kinds of exotic exhibits, Boston's favorite museum list also has a place at the Harvard Museum of Natural History. The museum was founded in 1998 by three different themes of botanical specimens, comparative zoology and mineral geology. The earliest botanical specimen museum was established, and at the beginning of the museum, more than 200,000 botanical specimens donated by Harvard professor Asa Gray were established. The Mineral and Geological Museum was donated in 1977, and the last was the Comparative Zoological Museum, which was built in 1859. Each theme pavilion has wonderful places, each pavilion has a happy float, the glass flower display of the botanical specimen museum, the comparison of zoological specimens, only you can't think of, there is no here that does not exist, the favorite is the mineral geology museum, all kinds of exquisite ore, It feels like few other museums have seen such a large scale and exquisite.
