In today’s society, it is very hard not to see the influence of Chinese culture and how it has shaped everything from medicine to our economy. The China Institute in Manhattan gives a deeper understanding of China through their programs in education, culture, business and art, and gives a strengthening of the global community by enhancing the knowledge of East and West. Inside the building, visitors will find more than your traditional artwork and instead find an education hub dedicated to all forms of communication and education supporting the understanding of China. While there, one has the opportunity to explore performing arts programs, lecture series, short courses, symposia, film screenings and workshops all revolving around China. Spring 2012 has a special focus on Chinese architecture and features a book signing for the novel “Chinese Architecture and the Beaux-Arts.” This event includes an in-depth lecture on this fascinating subject and is to be used as a catalyst to better understanding the development of Chinese architecture. The China Institute is one of New York’s best and only links to our neighbor to the east and should be a destination of anyone looking to expand their minds and better their understanding of the Chinese people.

Walk aboard a vessel that earned more commendations than perhaps any other warship in American naval history, and you're stepping into something far more immersive than a typical museum experience. Winter visits bring a particular quietness to the decks—the chill off the water adds an almost contemplative quality as you navigate through BB62's corridors and compartments. Rather than observing history from behind glass, you become part of the story itself. Sit in Admiral Halsey's command chair, bunk down where crews once rested between shifts, and squeeze into the 16-inch gun turrets to grasp how ammunition moved through the firing sequence. The ship hosts guided explorations, special events, and overnight stays that transform this retired battleship into an extraordinarily hands-on journey through naval warfare and maritime life.
