I have never been to a famous museum before, but I hope to visit the gallery of the Academy of Florence and the Vatican Museums, especially because I love Michleandeloe's art. I have only been to one museum in my life specifically Gamliga Mosque in Istanbul, there is a big museum on the upper floor of this mosque, which contains a lot of iconic art dating back to the Ottoman period.

So today I’m going to talk about museums. This is an interesting topic because there are many different types of museums with different types of art. Some people aren’t that interested in visiting museums and other people are fascinated with museums. Personally, I enjoy visiting museums if they are cheap or free, if they have some historical importance or if they have my preferred style of art. But I don’t like going to just any museums and I don’t like spending many hours at the museums.
So let me tell you about the couple of my favorite museums that I’ve been to. The most famous museum I’ve been to is Prado in Madrid. We actually got in for free because they allow people to enter in for free in the late afternoon. The Prado is a big museum with a ton of really important arts and in particular Spanish art. The museum has some of the most famous paintings from famous Spanish artists of the past like Velazquez and Goya . Some of the coolest works of art in the Prado are a big paintings of war and battle sea. I spent a lot of time just staring in these paintings.
Ok another famous museum that I’ve been to is the Gallery of the Academy of Florence . This museum is well known for one reason Michelangelo’s statue of David. This is the main reason why people go to that museum the other arts in this museum isn’t that famous. We were able to get in for free because we went during one of the free weeks that the museum has during the year. It were pretty cool see such a famous work of art in person. Also since we got to the museum earlier in the morning, there weren’t a big crowd of people surrounding the statue. We were actually some of the only people there when we got to the statue.
Ok, let’s talk about some of the other famous museums around the world. Perhaps the most famous museum in the world is the Louvre in Paris. I’ve never actually never been inside the the Louvre but I’ve been to the entrance before. The entrance is especially famous because it’s iconic pyramid shape. Tourists love taking creative pictures next to this pyramid. Another really famous museum is that the Vatican in Vatican city. I’ve also been to this museum before but I didn’t really like it that much. The most iconic work of art in this museum is the Sistine Chapel, which was painted by Michelangelo. One really importance museum in Italy is the Uffizi Gallery in Florence. The Uffizi Gallery has a greatest collection of Renaissance painting in the world. I didn’t get a chance to visit this gallery when I was in Florence because I didn’t have a lot of time there. Ok one more famous museum is the Metropolitan museum of Art in New York City. This is the largest museum in America and it has a huge amount of European and American art.
