A journey to the heart of art

Being a typical high school-er, I thought I lost interest about the field trip ever since I knew that there won't be and amusement park in the itinerary and the only ride we'll experience is the bus. As HUMSS students, we were assigned to visit dull and tedious museums—that's why I 

refrained myself from anticipating.

That's what I thought. Not until we arrived to our second destination—the Metropolitan Museum. Covered with crystal clear glass and squeaky clean tiles that you can already see your reflection. This museum, in my most honest opinion, was the highlight of the trip. If you're an art enthusiast, I would highly recommend you to visit the Metropolitan Museum. It is a home for aesthetically-pleasing artworks that will definitely satisfy your eye. The tour will offer you an exclusive privilege to witness the evolution of Filipino art. Unfortunately, the only downside of the museum is that taking photos, even without flash, is prohibited. A proof that they are really strictly protecting and preserving the natural forms of the original and precious art pieces.
