Museum of Asian Art in Nice

The Museum of Asian Art in Nice is one of the most modern museums dedicated to the culture of Asia. The unique building is located in the beautiful Phoenix Park. The museum was designed by the famous Japanese architect Kenzo Tange and is a structure of glass, white marble and steel. Marble walls and glass panels create a play of light inside and a feeling of weightlessness of the building outside. The four cubic pavilions symbolize Chinese, Indian, Japanese and Cambodian cultures.

The exposition presents objects related to different Eastern cultures and religions.

The museum is a place of annual exhibitions, seminars, tea ceremonies. Attending calligraphy or ikebana lessons, you can touch the Asian culture.

The museum is open to visitors daily, except Tuesday, from 10:00 to 18:00 – from May to mid-October. From mid-October to April - from 10:00 to 17:00.
