h赫时宏美术与雕塑馆

This museum is one of the best in the city. It is not overwhelmingly big, like the national gallery or national portrait gallery. It’s perfect to spend an afternoon wandering around the exhibits. They change fairly often, so you can go back again and again and see new things. The shop has some cool stuff in it—great for gifts that are fun but also functional. The outside of the building is weirdly hideous, though. Sculpture garden is fine. Good proximity to many great restaurants to go eat after you visit.

Beautiful place, the front desk service people was very helpful and the signs made it easy to navigate from one exhibit to another. The internal garden was wonderful to sit and enjoy. The reason for 3 stars is that the actual exhibits, some were a bit bare. It lacked the feel of the country it highlighted. The Buddhist exhibit was the best.

If you are a fan of modern art or of the contemporary style, this is the museum for you. Current exhibitions include the visually striking Pickett’s Charge, the psyche-jarring Belief and Doubt, and the contemplation stimulating What Absence is Made of. The sculpture garden around the museum is nice as well. The museum has a Dolcezza on the main floor where you can relax and snack while sitting on some gorgeous wooden benches.

Not usually as crowded as some of the most popular museums on the mall. Great place for seeing works of sculpture. The building is architecturally interesting. One of my favorites is the Burghers outside. You can look at them for hours wondering what Rodin thought they were thinking. Parking generally at the mall is pretty terrible, and can be expensive. If you're near a Metro, that may be the best bet.
