The Ultimate Inexpensive Guide to Exploring New York City Like a Local

Whether you're a fan of contemporary artwork or not, mazing your way around the spiraling corridors of the Guggenheim is enough of a reason to check out this phenomenal museum. And with hundreds of pieces of artwork, there is no surprise why this museum is one of the city's most adored cultural institutions.

Because museum fees can add up quickly, be sure to visit on Saturdays between the hours of 5:45 p.m. and 7:45 p.m. It is during this time that the museum offers a "pay what you wish" entrance fee.
