"Like any great city, Buenos Aires has its Museum Mile. For art, standouts include the National Fine Arts Museum (MNBA), with its mix of Argentine and European pieces, as well as the Buenos Aires Latin American Art Museum (MALBA), highlighting the works of Latin American artists. Walk the boulevard between the MNBA and MALBA to see some of the city’s most luxurious real estate. From the MNBA, cross Figueroa Alcorta and swing by the University of Buenos Aires Law School and Floralis Genérica , a 65-foot, stainless-steel kinetic sculpture representing a massive flower. Follow Figueroa Alcorta to Castilla, then turn left into Grand Bourg Park, a stately, if petite, plaza surrounded by imposing palaces, or take a right into Palermo Chico with its circular streets, grand mansions, and palaces. By Travesías"

"Filled with avant-garde 19th- and 20th-century works, the MALBA showcases pieces by Frida, Diego Rivera, Antonio Berni, Wilfredo Lam, among others. It's recommended to check out one of the temporary exhibits, which sometimes deviate from the Latin theme." - Celeste Moure

"If you have to pick one museum to see in Buenos Aires, MALBA should be your pick. The modern building, surrounded by the Palermo parks and ambassadors' mansions, is known for its permanent collection of famed contemporary Latin American artists, with works by Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, Fernando Botero, Antonio Berni and Tarsila do Amaral in its arsenal. Its dynamic team of curators has also put together some of the most interesting temporary exhibits in the city too; one season, they may highlight Argentine or Latin American art, and another, International, modern, or Contemporary. Ninina Bakery, a top coffee and pastry café, recently took over the restaurant space to bring quality eats to the museum—so don't miss a refueling pitstop there." - Allie Lazar

It's a really nice museum for modern art. They have different floors. On some they have exhibitions and on one they have the art from the museum. Depending on the exhibition it can be also nice to visit that. On the ground floor there is a shop!

Beautiful museum in a beautiful neighborhood. The exposition of paintings from Guillermo Kuitca (only one decade) was perfectly curated. The two amazing things. The people guarding the rooms were highly knowledgeable of the art, history, and the museum. Second, the alfajores on the second floor cafe.

It’s a relatively small museum, but it’s clean and well maintained. However, regular adult tickets are 8,000 and we were able to get into the Museo de Arte Moderno for free so would recommend trying that.

Great place but wish It were larger. I think the museums in the US and Mexico have me spoiled. Some of this museums best work is from Mexican artists. Consider giving Mexico back it's art and uplifting local talent instead.

Only one level was open and as a consequence, it was a bit crowded in each room. There is an audio guide you can download but not all of the pieces included in the guide were easy to find in the gallery. Although the art is very different in style, I much preferred visiting the Bella Artes museum.

Amazing exhibit on surrealism “The Third Eye” with truly some of the most evocative art pieces I’ve ever seen (pictured). If I were to visit one museum in Buenos Aires as an art fan (not just history) I would go here!

Always a great museum to visit Special exhibits are excellent. The ground floor cafe is one of the favorites in the city. The gift shop is packed with unique gifts for yourself and especially good when looking for that person that is difficult to get a gift for.
