Musée Guimet Travel Reviews

Appreciating Asian art in Paris Mar 11, 2007
The Musée Guimet was constructed by Emile Guimet, a industrialist from Lyon who devised the grand project of opening a museum devoted to the religions of Asian art. And it's a good thing he did that, if you ask me :). The museum is not very far from the Eiffel Tower and close to Palais de Tokyo. You can get there easily by metro.

If you like Asian art, I highly recommend this museum. They have a great permanent collection. I loved it! Since January 2009, the acces to the permanent collection is free. They also have a library where you can find books about Asian art, cute postcards, pens, calendars and other gadgets.
