6The Museum of Ice Cream

The Museum of Ice Cream gained fame for its Instagram-worthy installations and whimsical design, but many visitors have reported that the experience doesn’t live up to the hype. The admission price is high for what is essentially an interactive marketing stunt, and some find the overall experience underwhelming.

Why It’s a Trap: While it’s a fun place for photos, the Museum of Ice Cream lacks substance and doesn’t provide the same educational or cultural value as other NYC museums. Consider visiting the American Museum of Natural History or The Metropolitan Museum of Art for a richer experience.
