Designed by American “starchitect” Frank Lloyd Wright, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum is one of most respected institutions for modern and contemporary art in the world – not to mention a landmark of New York City architecture. Conceived of as an “inverted-ziggurat” and characterized by magnificent spirals, Wright’s design guides an entirely unique and expressive journey through the history of 20th and 21st century art. First opened to the public in 1959 and declared a National Historic Landmark in 2008, Wright’s iconic white masterpiece is one of Manhattan’s most photogenic design feats.

Great route. Too fast English delivery. So much traffic that the guide description first match to visiting places at time. Frequent buses and helpful employees. Over all time well spent.
