The Cloisters

I added the Cloisters to my list last year. I’m more intrigued to visit after catching a few glimpses of them in a fun little movie on TV last night called Keeping the Faith.

Who would’ve guessed they’d stick a medieval european monastery in the middle of a park in Inwood in the 1930s?

I was excited by the prospect of unicorns, only to discover they were all being stabbed to death by men with swords. This horrified me, and yet peaked some kind of morbid fascination.

Great surroundings too.

If you live in NYC you should check this place out. Its very beautiful.

it’s hard to believe you’re in new york city when you come here. plus, there’s unicorns!

It’s located within Inwood Hills/Fort Tryon Park… it’s a beautiful park. If you need a bathroom, you can visit the Cloisters. =] Actually, it’s very nice inside….
