The Metropolitan Museum of Art (Met) is one of the world’s largest and finest art museums. Following the suggested route will help you explore the museum.
The Temple of Dendur
This 2000-year-old building stood near the Nile River, surrounded by a wall that no longer exists. But you can still peek through the gateway. Whose “house” is this? It's not for people. It’s for gods. Can you identify them? They face out. A king faces in, bringing offerings.
