The Guimet museum in Paris

The Guimet museum in Paris is probably the best Asian arts museum in the world.

The collections are the results of one hundred years of passionate search since 1876 by industrialist Emile Guimet and many other lovers of Asian art.

The Guimet museum covers most Asian civilizations from India to Japan. The collections of Khmer art in particular are outstanding.

 Combine to them the modern and relaxing interior architecture designed by architect Henri Gaudin.

You have a few hundred meters away from Palais de Chaillot one of the most remarkable out of the beaten track museums in Paris. We recommend it warmly.
