One of the oldest museums in Paris (1898) with an impressive collection of Asiatic art and objects that initially belonged to Italian-born banker Henri Cernuschi. Its 12,000 pieces (of which ¾ are permanently displayed) make it the fifth most important museum of its kind in Europe and fill what used to be the banker's impressive 19th Century townhouse next to the Parc Monceau. Renovation in 2005 made more room available for everything to be seen in decent conditions.
Indeed, the sight of the most important – and huge - exhibit, an 18th Century bronze Buddha from Meguro (Tokyo), is breathtaking.. No wonder over 60,000 visitors a year come to see it. Or perhaps it's because the whole museum is free? ;-)
