    A great place to examine artifacts from different cultures all around the world. Nicely organized and presented. Every first Sunday of the month, it is free of charge the entire day and you can get a ticket on the spot. The other Sundays it is free after 3pm. It is definitely worth checking out.

    A surprisingly top quality and extensive collection of art from Africa, Southeast Asia and the Pacific. I spent as much time here as at the Louvre (no kidding)…really a world class collection, well presented and not crowded. Just next door to the Picasso museum and at the very least a place to occupy yourself if the timed entry tickets at Picasso are sold out. Will be glad to return here again!
