The Neapolitan Tree at The MET
The Annual Christmas Tree and Neapolitan Baroque Crèche
is alight in the Medieval Sculpture Hall of The Metropolitan Museum of Art through January 6.

Recorded music and lighting ceremonies add to the enjoyment of the holiday display.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art is located at 1000 5th Avenue, at 82nd Street.
