Om
Snabba fakta: This museum is housed in a striking early 20th-century palace that belonged to a wealthy art collector and politician. It features a mix of decorative arts, paintings, and rare artifacts from different continents.
Höjdpunkter: One fascinating piece is a 17th-century Arabian astrolabe that vividly illustrates navigational skills centuries ago. The palace's art nouveau interior decoration, complete with stained glass and hand-carved woodwork, creates a stunning atmosphere rarely found in museums.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes for walking through spacious rooms and ornate gardens.
- Photograph the detailed stained glass and wood paneling in natural light near windows.
- Skip the crowded mid-afternoon by arriving right at opening time.
- Spend a few extra minutes in the garden courtyard for peaceful views and unique sculpture pieces.

Har du hört talas om gratis guidade vandringar?
Efter att ha rest till över 30 länder finns det en sak jag önskar att någon hade berättat för mig från början, och det förändrade helt hur jag upplever nya städer.
Gratis guidade vandringar. Ja, faktiskt gratis. Ingen kreditkort krävs. Inga fångster.
Lokal guide, 2-3 timmar
Stora sevärdheter, dolda pärlor, lokala historier
100% dricksbaserat
Guider tjänar endast dricks, så de ger sitt absolut bästa
Du ger dricks efter eget tycke
I slutet ger du bara dricks efter eget tycke
Jag har gjort dessa i dussintals städer och de har varit höjdpunkten på nästan varje resa. Om du besöker Madeira, Portugal, gör detta din första dag. Du kommer att tacka mig senare.
