Visit Leeum Samsung Museum of Art

À propos

Faits rapides: Flowing through a museum architecture that combines traditional Korean aesthetics with modern lines, over 10,000 pieces of art are housed here, including ancient ceramics and contemporary work. Visitors often note how the museum’s three separate buildings offer distinct art experiences from Korean traditional art to international modern pieces.

Points forts: The museum features a rare collection of Korean ceramics highlighted by a serene Asia-inspired garden where you can spot unique stone sculptures that date back centuries. One of the buildings was designed by the famous architect Mario Botta, whose bold geometric shapes contrast sharply with the other structures designed by Jean Nouvel and Rem Koolhaas.

Conseils d'initiés

• Wear comfortable shoes for walking between the three buildings and through the garden.
• Check the museum’s calendar online to catch special exhibits or artist talks.
• Photography is allowed in designated areas only, so mind the signs to avoid restrictions.
• Visit on or right after weekdays open to avoid weekend crowd surges.
