Has a wide variety, I recommend choosing where you want to go on the map instead of trying to see everything. My favorite is the armor room and Indian sculptures !

Destiny Godwin

It was absolutely beautiful. I am a Art major and I really enjoyed it. I am not from the area about 2 hours away and it's so worth the trip! I love that it's free to get in you can't get any better.

A perfect mix between art and history. One of the top museums in the country featuring everything from Egyptian statues to Warhol art . The grounds outside are perfect for a walk or just to relax.

I do think that CMA is one of the best museums in the country . It’s like a more compact version of the Metropolitan museum , with constant new exhibitions and events .

Take your iPad (or rent one) and wander with ArtLens, an app with nine hours of tours and trivia . Stop into the interactive Gallery One for a taste of the masters (Picasso, Rodin, and Chuck Close).

I come here every time I'm in Cleveland and it only gets better. Set aside at least 3 hours if you really want to get the most out of it!

Wasn't expecting it to be this incredible. Needs at least three hours just to walk through. Treasure trove of paintings , statutes and installations from all art periods and styles.

Look for "The Kiss of Peace and Justice," a 1654 oil painting by Laurent de La Hyre, which depicts an embrace between a warrior who's just shed his armor and a woman whose face you cannot see.

Some very interesting and exciting exhibits plus good cafeteria and Provence restaurant . But the fabulous interactive wall is easy to bypass, so ask for it.
