Soumaya Museum

This museum is sublime. The exterior is a work of art apart from everything you can see inside. It has about 5 levels and you can see different pieces. Also, a train passes in front of the museum is really amazing. If you're in CDMX this museum is a ten to ten. Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait … More

It’s interesting building with unique design and style! I wish I could go inside but the line was too long. Would love to visit again, I heard the entrance is free.

Very interesting museum and it's free! The look from outside is gorgeous. It's easy to spend 2 hours here and there are many interesting artworks to explore. I came here during weekdays morning when it opens and there were not a lot of people.

The best collection of Rodin sculptures on the top floor. Definitely worth seeing it is open Seven days a week and it’s free! Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No … More

It was free to enter the museum, where we saw masterpieces by painters and sculptors like Rodin and Van Gogh. It surprised me how many floors there were, with each floor displaying different artwork, from paintings to sculptures. The top floor has good lighting that emphasizes the ceiling architecture. As a whole, I thought the museum was well-maintained, organized, and structured. There was an elevator that quickly took us down to the first floor. I highly recommend it.

Wide variety of art. It’s free and the building has AC + clean bathrooms. Definitely worth visiting if you are in the area

Beautiful! Can't believe it's free to visit! Consider spending 3 to 4 hours here, and even after that, it's worth to revisit. There are so many things to see. My favourite was the ivory collection.

Fantastic art collection. Most Rodins group together, other than Paris museum. Interesting early Dali work, other notable things, too numerous dimension Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait … More

very nice museum ! its free so expect a little line. worth a visit. good exercise too but they do have an elevator as well

Awesome free museum and lots of cool things to see. Highly recommend if you’re visiting the city

Awesome architecture and a must for picture takers. I didn’t go into any museum itself but it was still worth my trip there

Beautiful museum in the inside and out! Worth the visit. Just make sure you have enough time to go inside and enjoy it. Free entry too! Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No … More

Incredible collection, unbelievable for its quantity and diversity. Almost overwhelming. Currently organized by medium / origin. Mr. Slim, May I humbly suggest an all-media inclusive exhibition by era? Your collection would make an impressive historical retrospective.

Amazing place!! Great art. A most in the "To Do List" Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No … More

Entrance is free and is definitely a must see if youre in México City. The collection is extensive and simply beautiful! Come prepared to walk a lot, there are several floors with displays and you have to walk to get to them. We were super tired by the time we got to the fourth floor, luckily there are seats to take a break.

Spectacular building with wonderful content of art. A must while in Mexico City. Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No … More

Admission is completely free. Do not bring any water bottles here. Lot of European art and statues to look at. They have a nice asian and classic music section as well. would highly recommend stopping by!

First, let me say that this museum has fantastic art and one of the best and most diverse collections I’ve seen. I truly believe it rivals top tier museums like the MET and others. Additionally, the framing and layout is great and the architecture is fabulous both inside and out. Also, it’s totally free. Truly a great donation by Carlos Slim (who funds the museum) as millions of people who otherwise may not be able to pay admission get to see such beautiful art. It warms my heart thinking of all the people who’ve been able to see quality art due to the free entry.

Amazing museum, largest collection in North America, soooooooo much history and so much to see in a gorgeous building. Free on Sunday’s and open until 630 so it’s easy to find a way and make a trip here. Totally worth it and highly recommend!! Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No … More

The museum from the outside and inside is just breathtaking wow! The architecture from the outside is super unique. The inside is super spacious and has lots of beautiful artifacts. The admission was also free!

Soumaya Museum was amazing. Architecture by Fernado Romeo is incredible. I loved the exhibitions. One of my favourites was 'Reloj con Astrolabio'. The Soumaya is definitely a space, time, continuum.

Beautiful architecture as well the exhibition inside. Loved ground floor for the sculpture and also Asia in ivory Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No … More

The building itself has a very unique and modern design. There's no entrance fee but once you go in, you can't bring any liquid inside and if you are carrying a big bag then you must leave it at their storage area. The inside is massive. The collections are insanely huge from all around the world. I don't remember how many levels the building was, but it think it was seven floors high. The top floor had all the statues , more than a hundred I think. The building itself is next the mall.

Impressive Museum with great art selections. Free admission and really friendly staff. You can also visit Museo Jumex - just a few steps way.

Soumaya makes an incerdible impression both from the outside (building’s architecture is really unique) and inisde. With it’s five storeys exhibition it offers a journey through ages, cultures and geographies.

Incredible museum freely accessible to the public. I really liked how diverse the exhibitions were as well, including a Khalil Gibran exhibit and a series exploring the evolution of the telephone (an apt one considering Slim owns Telcel).

A beautiful art museum housed in a unique building in the heart of Mexico City. One of the top destination and highly recommended to visit. Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No … More

Beautiful museum. We visited on a Tuesday and the entrance was free of charge. If you’re carrying a backpack you’ll have to leave it in a cloakroom at the entrance. It has six floors, each with their own theme. Loved the Mexican art selection. Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No … More

Such a beautiful building, filled with works of art from many eras and movements, impressionists, vanguards, romantics, a ton of amazing sculptures and commented displays makes a perfect modern place.to appreciate art

One of the best museums I've been to although sometimes the layout wasn't very intuitive. (Or doesn't exist at all in the sculpture level!) I could have gone back again the next day, I liked it that much. FREE thanks to Carlos Slim.

An architectural marvel built by Carlos Slim in memory of his late wife. Surrounded by beautiful city space and several other museums and an aquarium nearby. Very busy so be prepared to wait in line (it is free)

Great spot! Free entry to the museum. You can leave your stuff in a locker for free as well. Go to the 5th floor and walk downwards. Definitely worth a visit, lovely architecture and art collection.

Why I consider that a good place to visit? Free Open on Mondays Several halls and different art styles. It's the all inclusive of the museums.

Free museum with a wide range of art. The ground floor has a few large pieces that are quite famous. Then we went all the way to the 5th floor and made our way down. An incredible amount of sculptures on the 5th floor with a few paintings. Roudin's sculptures take up a large part of this floor but there are other artists as well. Theirs a floors with musical instruments that felt like a history museum too. Old phones, watches, and picture machines. Tons more art as well. We were expecting to stay for 45 minutes but stayed about 2 hours. It was not busy at all when we went on a Friday

Beautiful museum full of historic art pieces from around Europe and the Americas. This museum is five stories tall so get your walking shoes on. There is a gift shop and cafe for refreshments. There is also one whole floor dedicated to Mexican history. Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait … More

Gorgeous building and space! Personally more into contemporary art, so didn’t particularly enjoy the art here, however the space itself is phenomenal and worth checking out. The curved walls as you walk to the upper levels are beautiful, and the top floor has a bright naturally lit room filled with sculptures.

Amazing! there is the work of many amazing sculptors and painters. It's a high-level museum. It’s free and the modernist architecture of the building is beautiful.

Beautiful museum on the outside, and it’s free to enter! Start at the top and work your way down. I thought that the sculptures on the top level were a bit too crowded. I loved the area with the old telephones and switch boards!

The architecture of the museum is gorgeous and very reminiscent of the Guggenheim in New York - however beware that there are no windows so it does get quite claustrophobic! Oh and the art was good too! (Free entry)

Great experience and great art to be seen. Some really good collections. Covid-19 precautions in place. You'll need to check-in you bag/backpack. Five floors of art pieces! I would recommend a visit if in CDMX.

Though not my favorite museum in this city—that would be the National Museum of Anthropology—and not housing one of my favorite kinds of collections, this museum is nonetheless a remarkable achievement. Both innovative and informative, the creative use of space leads one up a spiral hallway, moving one through time and through the history of Mexican art and the collecting of art in a very effective way. The exuberant exterior of the museum speaks for itself.

For a free museum, it cannot be beat. There were about 6 floors of collections, I'd recommend taking the elevator to the top first then walk down as you check out the art/exhibits. The architecture of the building alone is worth the visit.

I find it fascinating that Carlos Slim named this museum after his late wife Soumaya Domit. Fernando Romero son-in-law of Carlos Slim did an amazing architecture work . You can find a large collection of Auguste Rodin and his work The Gates Of Hell. There's also collections of ancient European masters on display like Leonardo da Vinci, Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Joan Miro, Vincent van Gogh, Henri Matisse, Claude Monet, Bartolome Esteban Murillo, El Greco, Camille Claudel, and Tintoretto. There's even several Mexican artists work like Diego Rivera, Rufino Tamayo, and large collection of colonial era coins. Overall great experience and a wonderful place to see an amazing art collection not to mention free entrance to the museum totally worth going... a most if you happen to be in Mexico city .

If your in CDMX I highly recommend that you take a couple hours and come visit this museum. The Soumaya museum is the personal art collection of Carlos Slim! The museum is free to visit and has some beautiful art to view!!!! There are 6 floors with different types of art from paintings to sculptures to coins to phones etc…. A very impressive art collection that Mr Carlos Slim has put in the museum for all to enjoy!

Well worth the time. It was free to enter and if you take your time you can spend a day walking through and seeing an impressive collection Carlos Slim has amassed.

Absolutely loved the Soumaya Museum. There is lots to see, so wear comfortable shoes so you can explore the five different levels. This museum is free to the public, and it has a small gift shop on the ground level where you can buy souvenirs, drinks, and small snacks.

Just because it’s free doesn’t mean it isn’t great or worthy of your time. This is a our museum that serves as a gift to Mexico City from Carlos Slim himself. It is filled with several generational pieces and multiple floors of interesting art. Definitely worth a look. I suspect you can do the museum in 90 minutes or less. There are only a few breath taking pieces that make this spot worthy to enjoy.

If you’re in CDMX, this should be your must visit place. This a private museum founded by billionaire Carlos Slim and it’s totally free to visit which is amazing. It has over 66000 works from 30 centuries. This is one of its kind with vast collections of Rodin’s work. In addition to Rodin, some notable European artists whose work is displayed include Salvador Dalí, Pablo Picasso, the circle of Leonardo da Vinci, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Joan Miró, Vincent van Gogh, Henri Matisse, Claude Monet, Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, El Greco, Camille Claudel, and Tintoretto. It’s a 6 floor building architected by Carlos Slim’s son-in-law and costed whopping $70 million to build. Each floor is well designed and has a different collection all together. We liked the floor with the ivory collection the most. You can easily spend a whole day if you’re into art and want to read through everything, or just scroll through in couple of hours. Don’t get scared of the steps, there are elevators and ramps to help the elderly. There is food court and souvenir shop too. Be sure to reach early to make most of it. Else, there will be a huge line to get in.

A rather small museum with and spectacular architecture. The Museum houses is a wide variety off art corresponding to painters and sculptors from Mexico and around the world. It has also a decent collection of artifacts and antiques. Located at a premium location in Polanco, the museum is easy accessible by car, food or public transportation. It has a small shop and Café. The shop sales mainly souvenirs from Mexico and a small selection of et books. Did I mentioned there is no entrance fee?

Great art collection. A very good combination of international and Mexican arts. You can find very nice collection of Rodin’s sculptures and lots of fabulous Mexican paintings

It's amazing! Every room is focused on different cultures and types of art, from sculpture and music to painting and photography. I really loved it! You also can find some inedit and original notes by Khalil Gibran.
