Fine Arts Museum, Ho Chi Minh

Probably the most remarkable site of the Fine Arts Museum is the colonial French building that houses 3 floors of works. The art works, albeit some less well-preserved, represent some pieces of Vietnam's art history. The first floor is changing exhibits of both local and international artists; the second floor is the permanent collection of sketches, paintings and statues. The third floor contains older works from as far back as the 1st century and up to the early 20th century. The basement gallery can be accessed through the courtyard in the center of the building where visitors can buy good art work of more contemporary artists for affordable prices. -Kevin Minh
