A continuously improving cool place to hangout for kids and learning students; rather than malls or shallow entertainment. Keep it up at MABUHAY! ang sining Pilipinas. 🇵🇭 ✨☀️🇵🇭

Vianch Arevalo

Really nice place! I wish people would visit our museum often. The entrance fee is cheap , plus the time you'd spend here is worth it. It's really interesting.

Monica Trajano

Stand in awe of our National Treasure, the Spolarium , by Juan Luna . An extensive collection from national artists is housed with WW2 period pieces and sculptures . Entrance is free and staff is great!

Christian Tolentino

Great collection. The other good stuff like the Spoliarium and whale shark bones are housed in a separate building across the main structure .

Meg Mondiguing

Eat & drink a bit before coming here. Food isn't allowed. There aren't any concessionaires. Prepare to get tired from all the walking. Apart from all that, seeing all this history is so frickin cool.

Mary Rose de Vega

This is one of the historical place in part of Manila if you want to go inside you will be advice that the Photo capturing is ristricted.

Nicole Antonette Del Rosario

Work your way from the third floor going down. Make sure the Hall Masters of is your last stop. This route guarantees goosebumps at the end of your tour . :)

Elf Nacua

Wouldve wanted to see more historical artifacts since the bldg is mostly filled with paintings and sculpture . Enlightening experience nevertheless.

Grashy Cordova

Free entrances on Sundays. Bad timing of coming here on a Saturday. The place is awesome though.. and we had no problems walking.. it was so worth it.

Ryk Ramos

Sunday is free. Luna , Amorsolo, Manansala , Francisco, Joya, among others. Philippine Arts at its best.

Every year the museum gets better and better. The National Art Gallery should not be missed!

Great collection of works of masters like Luna and Hidalgo.

The best thing about this place is the air conditioning in many rooms - really cold

for those students who needs to authenticate their plant for thesis/research purposes, you need to visit the botany department 😁

Great exhibits however the layout of the galleries could be more intuitive.

Check out their 'Pamana' exhibit -- or take a peek inside the on-going restoration of the old senate hall. Marvelous place.

Awesome place! I especially like Dead Child of Juan Luna and Tausug Princess. The murder paintings are intriguing.

Stefan Garcia

It is now free everyday!

Start from the 3rd floor first so you won't go back and forth. Entrance is totally free! Then visit the Planetarium afterwards would be a good combo.
