Philadelphia Museum of Art

This was a fantastic museum with ongoing great exhibitions. I loved 'Matisse in the 1930s' and 'Macho men' exhibitions so much. Its permanent collections are huge. I couldn't even see half of it even though I've went this museums 2 days in a row ad spent 6 hours each day. I love impressionism so this place was like heaven. This museum also has great American Art collection which made me surprised. There was huge collection of glass art so if you love glass art this place is must go. Overall, this museum was one of the greatest museum in the US I've ever been to and I am planning to go back soon so I could see all of its collection. Admission ticket is awesome because you could use 2 days in a row with paying only 1 ticket and you could go to Rodin museum for free as long as you shows the ticket from Philadelphia Museum of Art. What an awesome deal for visitors!

Philadelphia Museum of Art is one of my favorite attractive places to go with the family. I'd take the kids to check out some rooms there and the history, I like that they have a cafe area in the ground level area. You can eat and drink whatever you like there. You can take pictures there as you wish. Also, I wish they open until 7 pm because 5 is early to be closed. I don't think I've any cons to mention. I highly recommend for family trips.

I am not the type of person to really like Art Museums but this was pretty cool! It had many different exhibits through the different eras. Kids are free and adults cost $25. It was a pretty cool museum with cool exhibitions. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time for the special ones like Matisse. But, the permanent ones were still pretty cool. It had a lot of great American Art collection. Friendly and accommodating staff. Definitely try to have a lot of time empty to explore the entire place.

Visited on Friday. There are some free parking spots behind park Azalea Garden of the museum. They could be somewhat limited on weekend. I would recommend visiting the museum on weekdays if time permits. Friendly and accommodating staff. There is a decent collection of art work and historical pieces of variety. Good for a two-plus-hour visit.

The museum is free of admission on Fridays after 5 pm till close. This is the best time to visit with the spectacular sunset view from the west room!! The exhibitions incorporate their representing cultures into art which makes it unique. My family really enjoy this experience. There are plenty of off-street parking spaces in addition to a few paid parking lots. More entertainment including big wheel, Merry-go-round, music, booths on the open lawn in front of the museum for family with children.

I have been here so many times for school I could give you a grand tour of the amazing art here. I love the collection and how it is organized with information and every so often new artists have their works up or they put up old works for periods of time but most of the time the works stay up for a few months. Some works are permanently up on the walls which is cool and you can see various famous artists works. The museum also does a beautiful job of decoration when the seasons change for the holidays. Sundays are free admission when you pay a donation of your choice. Students when they bring IDs on other days get discounts.

I visited this place during my visit to Philly. It was a Sunday, so the entry was free. They suggest to donate, which I absolutely recommend. This is one of the famous art museum cum galleries in the US. They have enormous collection of wonderful artworks and artefacts. We spent 4 hours and hardly could finish everything. They have separate sections of European art, American/ indigenous, Hispanic, Indian/ Asian, contemporary, etc. if you don’t have much time, select beforehand what you would like to see. On top of their regular display, they often have various limited exhibitions and show. The building itself is very famous for the film Rocky. However, if you are an art lover, this place is yours. You can spend several days if you have interest. It’s a must visit place if you are around.

The artwork was spectacular I looked at just about every piece of art The collection was huge I stayed there for about an hour just taking pictures and viewing artwork if you're into art I will most definitely recommend that you go there now while they have their exhibition up. My favorite section was the section that had the medieval weapons and armor I even posted many pictures of what they had my favorite was the great sword it was cool

Excellent museum in PA. It is an hour drive from NJ. Good collection of art. Though it is not as big as the Met. The ticket remains valid for 2 days including the first day of your visit. However, one day may be sufficient. Friendly staff and good cafeteria. All in all a good excursion for the entire family.

My first visit. We only had a couple of hours. I'm more interested in history and I was not disappointed. Our first stop my choice was the American Art section. I loved it! What I loved even more was the guide that was so informative! I learned so much from her! I want to bring my granddaughter back. I hope she will be there when we return.
