New Kid on the Block


As museums go, the Musée Quai Branly is a newcomer.  Close to la Tour Eiffel, facing the Seine this museum opened in 2006 and features indigenous art, cultures, and civilizations from Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas. Designed by Jean Nouvel, whose Green Wall is part of the exterior, this is a new museum to add to your long list.

Dans l'herbe


The Musée du quai Branly, one of Paris' newer museums displays collections of objects from African, Asian, Oceanian and American civilizations.  Opened in 2006, it sits along the Seine with la Tour Eiffel close by.  A nice friendship.
