What a great time at this museum. Especially since student tickets were $14. Here are some things I learned: 1. Contemporary Art is funny. Let’s stop the fluff. Like it is goofy. Take it in. I enjoyed it. 2. The Rocky statue is a funny concept. A fictitious character has made its way into this city’s life, and the people eat it up! I suggest next statue to be Anger from inside out in San Francisco. 3. Parking here is a scam I shouldn’t have paid. Just go through the gate and it will maybe open.
Going to college in Philly for 4 years long ago, I previously only visited the museum's Rocky Statue outside but back in September 2025 I was able to actually visit it inside for the first time. It was wonderful to go on a Sunday that was pay-what-you-wish which made it very affordable and accessible. We really enjoyed checking out the various exhibits and we noticed it has a large portion of European art compared the other amounts. Overall it was good though and I would recommend it!
A huge, magnificent museum built in the neoclassical style. Now, at the end of November, the main staircase inside the building is already decorated for Christmas, and it's done with great taste and elegance. Like a child, I thoroughly enjoyed riding the giant elevators with their enormous, palatial doors. It's very convenient that there are two entrances, one of which leads to a very picturesque park with a beautiful view of the city and the river. You can park for free behind the park.
Climbing up the grand staircase felt like stepping into an ancient Roman temple! ⛪️ The museum’s interior is full of brilliant design details — even the elevator has a striking, unforgettable look. ✨ Behind it, the Phillips Fountain offers a perfect view of City Hall, making it a great photo spot! 📸 You can also find Monet’s Sunflowers here 🌻 — and learn about the meaning behind the Chinese phrase “Five Blessings Arrive at the Door” (五福臨門), symbolizing happiness, longevity, health, virtue, and peace. 🍀
This museum offers art from many periods that are nothing short of exquisite! There are four floors of exhibits. I recommend to start at the third floor and work your way down. There are stairs and elevators for those who are handicapped. The third floor offers armor, European Art from the Medieval period to roughly 1850 as well as Asian Art. Not only are art pieces displayed, but also parts of buildings to showcase the artful architecture of Europe and Asia. The second floor includes contemporary European and American artworks. Paintings, sculptures, and displays make up most of the floor, each demonstrating the variety of creativity the modern mind can produce. The first floor encompasses the special exhibit and American Art up to the early nineteenth century with and emphasis on Pennsylvania art and furniture. The gift shops are also on this floor, featuring exceptional books, prints, magnets, stickers, and other souvenirs one may take home with them. The ground floor includes some African and Asian artwork from a special exhibit of artistic clothing. The security people did not make you feel uncomfortable (in fact, many were welcoming). Overall, this is a museum that one has to check out if they are in the Philadelphia area. Be prepared to spend four hours there at least if you like looking at every single item!
