A Whirlwind Tour of the Museum: MFA Boston - We took a whirlwind tour and managed to see everything in 3 hours and 15 minutes. If we had looked closely, a day wouldn't have been enough. Unfortunately, the Japanese Pavilion was closed, so we missed famous pieces like "Dragon King's Palace at Suruga" and "The Great Wave off Kanagawa." Since 2016, there's been a gallery at the MFA dedicated to rotating exhibits of Monet's works. We saw "Camille Monet in Japanese Costume," which had a different style but was incredibly colorful and beautiful. We also saw Renoir's "Dance at Bougival," Gauguin's "Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?," and Van Gogh's "Postman Joseph Roulin." The Egyptian exhibit was quite interesting, with various mummies of cats, dogs, crocodiles, and humans. The Guanyin statue in the Chinese Pavilion was fascinating, particularly the rare depiction of Guanyin holding a lotus. The Water-Moon Guanyin was also beautiful, representing the most relaxed posture among the thirty-three different forms of Guanyin, typically seated on a rock or wood, leisurely observing the reflection of the moon in the water, reminding people that everything is illusory. Overall, the museum's layout felt a bit chaotic, and we found ourselves wandering around. The adult ticket price was $27 per person, and tickets could be purchased on-site.

Boston Museum - One of the best museums, in 4 hours you can leisurely tour all the different rooms of the museum. In the common area there is a small cafeteria, I recommend taking a sketch to guide you, since the museum is very large and has several areas and floors, ask about the new exhibits, we had “the great wave”

World Class - One of the world's top museums, up there with the British Museum and the Met in New York. The Egyptian collection is outstanding; the pieces are among the finest I have ever seen. Some rare, all high quality. The staff are extremely helpful and the New American Cafe was excellent. One of the must-do attractions in Boston.

Fine Arts - Easy route, huge rooms, the museum welcomes works from all over the world! It is a journey into art, culture, magnificence, history and beauty that leaves you breathless. The various periods and works follow one another from room to room where everything is finely described. I recommend choosing two or more paths to see that suit your personal interests. Absolutely don't miss this huge jewel!

Beautiful - So much to see! Displays were well organized to be educational and eye-catching. Wish we hadn’t been hungry and tired because we would’ve liked to have stayed longer. We were there for a couple of hours but, I feel like there was still more to see. You could spend at least half a day here, I think.

A pleasant day amongst the Masters of the Arts. - Fabulous collection of Dutch and Flemish masters, as well as the impressionist. And, most important, a magnificent collection of Egyptian and Mesopotamian/Babilonian arts. We also found a rare collection of musical instruments from the 14, 15 and 16 centuries A. C. Simply delightfull. We spent three happy hours walking around the different expositions in the museum.

Consider giving seniors a break - No question one of the great museums in the USA as well as in the world. However, does not offer seniors or those on a fixed income a reduced price to enjoy the museum. That’s a shame. Many older folks cannot afford $27 for the entry fee.

Museum of Fine Arts - This is a massive art museum with plenty of artifacts thrown in for good measure. We saw lots of Art of Ancient Greece, Rome, the Byzantine Empire, Dutch and Flemish Art, Egyptian Sculpture as well as American art. It was a good thing there were benches everywhere because the size of this place will wear you out. The Monet's are wonderful.
