Liz . • March 24, 2016The museum is huge! And now my favorite museum I've ever visited! Definitely requires at least half a day, if not the whole day if you really want to see and read everything.

Eduardo N. • July 2, 2016If in Mexico City do not miss this spectacular museum. Just visiting the building is worth it, but they also have the best collection of Mexican Art.

Beena K. • December 30, 2018Don’t be intimidated by long lines during weekends. They move pretty fast. One of the best art museums in Mexico City.

Don Eduardo D. • July 3, 2016A little bit tedious the permament exposition but many temporal expositions about modern art or design. Try to take a coffee at the restaurant and enjoy the afternoon

Enock Pio U. • February 13, 2020The temporary exhibitions are a must, though the permanent collection includes iconic works by Kahlo, Siqueiros and Rivera.

Kandu T. • December 6, 2018An excellent museum with a very contemporary architecture and always offers very good exhibits that change constantly. One of the best places to check new works of art, both modern and contemporary.
