⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A wonderful museum with a unique atmosphere! We really enjoyed our visit — the combination of contemporary art and the archaeological ruins beneath the building is truly impressive.

Nice museum. The temporary exhibition "Why Look at Animals?" is an interesting approach to the humanity's stance towards animals. Worth a visit. Ticket costs 10 euros and you can reuse ir for the next 30 days. The restaurant on the top floor offers nice views of Acropolis.
