Malba in Buenos Aires is a fantastic museum that I highly recommend. Although it's relatively small, spanning just three floors with an additional installation downstairs, it offers a remarkable experience. The museum is constantly updating its exhibits, ensuring there's always something new to see.
What sets Malba apart is its impressive collection of Latin American art. The museum owns a large array of pieces, potentially the largest in the region, but it's clear that much of their collection is lent out to other museums and frequently travels. This means you can always expect to see fantastic works that might not be on display elsewhere.
During a Friday afternoon visit, I found it pleasantly uncrowded. However, I can see how it could quickly become very busy during opening nights or special events, as it may not handle large crowds exceptionally well.
Overall, Malba is a must-visit for art enthusiasts and anyone interested in Latin American culture. For more updates and reviews, be sure to follow me on Google as I strive to become one of the top...

Read moreQuite disappointed we paid full price for only one of the three floors of the museum, the other floors were closed including the ‘Surrealistic floor’.
We were happy we visited on a Wednesday, when the entrance is cheaper, but do recommend guest services to tell you only one floor is opened.
When asked, guest services told us there’s a poster hanging outside stating the ‘Surrealistic exhibition was from then to then’ and we just missed it, but that is was stated and we should’ve read it. When we told her the poster is in Spanish, she shrugged.
And don’t give us that ‘learn the language of the country you’re travelling to’, because we don’t ask tourists to talk Dutch in the Netherlands or Finnish in Finland and Swedish in Sweden either. A sign in English could’ve sufficed for a museum that attracts a lot...
