    A small gem filled with diverse Dalí works and insightful commentary. It feels like a journey into the master’s mind. Highly recommended for curious minds—an experience that is both strange and enlightening

    We visited the Dalí Museum and what a delight! The setting is truly beautiful, with very high ceilings and a vast exhibition space. From the outside, the museum doesn’t do justice to how stunning it is inside, everything feels like a hidden surprise. I highly recommend it with your eyes closed… though you’ll definitely want to open them once inside to appreciate all the treasures it holds. Sculptures, drawings, sketches, design furniture, Dalí is everywhere!
