The Gulbenkian shows all highlights or art. It is small but with a great surrounding: the view on the park in the background gives an extra dimension to the art which is displayed. The Museum is not expensive and well worth visiting.

Don't miss it, fantastic collection of the best of the best in Western and Middle Eastern art, but not huge. Well presented.
The exhibits and artworks are an eclectic mix as you would expect but the quality was a surprise. My wife particularly loved the Lalique Art Nouveau jewellery and bowls.
This is one the great galleries of the world and you'd be mad to miss it. The collection is beautifully presented in an understated,elegant building. You go through in the order the gallery stipulates, which is not only chrononological but logical and quietly educative.

Surrounded by a nice park you'll find in this elegant building an impressive collection gathered by an outstanding art collector.

A combination of interesting architecture and good exhibits. Set in a park, so make sure you allow time to sit outside and enjoy the surroundings.
This museum may not have the biggest collection on display but everything is the most exquisite example of its kind. I have never seen so much so much beauty in one place - from the Lalique jewellery to the early Grecian art.
What a nice discovery. Close to our hotel & a place my parents had been to in1987. Beautiful garden with ponds, ducks & sculptures.
