One of the world's largest natural history museums with over 36 million specimens and exhibits, the American Museum of Natural History educates and entertains visitors, with the most comprehensive offerings about the human evolution and is home to one of the Museum's most celebrated icons, the 94-foot-long blue whale model. Forty-two separate exhibit halls display a variety of interactive and hands-on collections, including dinosaurs galore. The Cosmic Collisions show at the Rose Center for Earth and Space is a must! The IMAX features interesting and educational movies. TRAIN: A, C, B, D to 81st St.
