~~Visit to Cloisters~~


Apart from having wonderful time in Tryon park during the medieval festival I took time to visit the Clositers museum situated in the middle of the park. It has collections of art and artifacts from medieval Europe. Entry ticket into the museum is $20 but for students like me its free!


The above collage consists of a book from 14th century,beautiful scriptures carved out of marbles,playing cards used in those days,a coffin for the kings and one wonderful painting. Though its not as large as the MoMA of NYC its worth a visit if you are a student!
