Weekday mornings around opening time are calmest and the courtyard light is softest. Summer afternoons heat up quickly, so arrive early and use the terrace before the midday sun.

O
Rýchle fakty: Some 2,000-plus works make up the permanent collection, with roughly 400 pieces rotating through the galleries at any one time. The institution counted as the country's first purpose-built showcase for modern and contemporary art when it debuted a decade ago.
Zaujímavosti: A bronze mashrabiya-style lattice wraps the facade, so afternoon sun paints lacy shadows across the courtyard before you even buy a ticket. Inside, look for works where Moroccan painters traded European oils for natural pigments, including robes dyed with henna and saffron from the Atlas foothills.

- Save the cafe and museum shop for the end, tour groups are thickest around midday.
- Check the temporary exhibition schedule before you visit, the rotating shows often outshine the permanent hang.
