Internationally known with locations also in Amsterdam, London , Hong Kong, Shanghai, And Las Vegas . The museum is the namesake of a 17th century French housekeeper who became skilled and gained prestige in wax molding under the teachings of the physician Dr. Philippe curtius, whom she had worked for for many years. Madame Tussaud's New York City museum is located on 42nd St right off of 8th Ave and offers a great panoramic view of time square. The museum is famous for it's life like wax figures with there anatomically correct body proportions. The figures are of many famous singers, movie stars, presidents and a whole genre of other famous people. As you go through the different and magnificently put together galleries you experience a vivid fell for each one. The museum is one of the city's major tourist attraction and it's also known for attracting the famous to see there own likeness. A couple of my favorite pieces is the figure of Microsoft's CEO Bill Gates and R&B singer Beyounce Knowles. The figures are so good I guarantee you'd look twice just to make share your not seeing thing as they regularly have displays' on the outside. To any traveler or tourist planning on visiting NYC make sure to put Madame Tussauds wax museum at the top of your sightseeing list.
