    Absolutely wonderful visit. Elena is a complete joy and very helpful. The museum is well maintained and laid out and covers parts of the world that are rarely covered in museums. Though I have not been to Central Asia, it is a hope of mine, and this is the first time I've seen a large collection in any museum Recommend for a short visit.

    Great little Museum with many things to see about Asia and the Pacific regions. Very educational and it happened we were the during the Arabic Cultural Festival with lots of presentations, seminars and foods.

    A wonderful place, many exhibits, nicely displayed. You can admire the art and craftsmanship of Asia and the Pacific. It is worth visiting the shop where you can find interesting publications and beautiful souvenirs. I recommend it to visitors to Warsaw, it's really worth it!

    (Translated by Google) Currently, the main exhibition is not available. The exhibits on display were interesting, but only 2 available rooms are not enough to be delighted. I will definitely come back next year, in July 2021 in the hope that the main exhibition will be open after renovation. (Original) Obecnie główna wystawa nie jest dostępna. Wystawione teraz eksponaty były interesujące, ale raptem 2 dostępne sale to za mało aby można było się zachwycić. Na pewno wrócę za rok, w lipcu 2021 w nadziei, że główna wystawa będzie otwarta po remoncie.

    New and renovation exhibition with nice and interactive media about all Asian countries. Nice to visit in the weekend, it was not too crowded. Not suitable for children.

    The museum is relatively small, but is expected to double in size in the future. Nowadays it is very pleasant to visit, at a very reasonable price. A lot of costumes, jewelry, musical instruments. Stunning ships made of carnations. Unfortunately, you can't see the pagoda in the courtyard. Big problem with parking the car. The museum also hosts various events and workshops. Cloakroom with combination lockers.

  • 4/5 Łukasz T. 1 month ago on Google • 223 reviews New
    Interesting exhibits, including costumes, instruments and weapons. The exhibition is worth seeing, but there are two shortcomings in my opinion: very small numbers on the exhibits, which makes their identification difficult, and very low plates with descriptions of the exhibits, you have to squat down almost every moment to read them ☹️

  • 5/5 Uladzimir Zuyeu / Владимир �. 1 month ago on Google • 223 reviews New
    Interesting museum dedicated to Central Asia, Mongolia and Indonesia. Admission is free on Thursday

  • 5/5 Tikhon L. 5 months ago on Google • 162 reviews
    These workshops offer intriguing experiences. I find it fascinating to have the chance to write on authentic palm leaves in Bali using traditional instruments, guided by knowledgeable and friendly instructors who share their stories and expertise. The museum isn't very large, but it's quite captivating, showcasing a diverse collection of musical instruments, clothing, and artifacts from various ethnic groups spanning across Asia. Don't miss the charming and petite souvenir shop, which offers a delightful collection of books as well.

  • 5/5 Paulinka �. 1 month ago on Google • 121 reviews New
    Beautiful exhibits, a bouquet of colors typical of the costumes of eastern countries. I recommend visiting with a guide, but be careful! Then you need to be prepared to stand in one place for a long time. It's worth persevering. I happened to be at the moment when there were no Far Eastern countries, i.e. Japan and China, but I was informed that it was planned for the end of 2024. I recommend it, because it's really beautiful stuff.

    great place, intimate museum, great arrangement, interesting presentation of Chinese painting on glass, interesting collection of ethnographic art from Asian and Pacific countries, you will surely spend a calmly relaxing time... I recommend it..zz

  • 5/5 Lada C. 2 months ago on Google • 58 reviews New
    Really enjoyed visiting this museum. It’s relatively not huge. Personally I like such type of museums - you can’t be tired after visiting it, because you’ll spend maximum 2,5 hours there. At the same time you’ll get interesting knowledge about Asia :)

  • 4/5 Wojciech Ostrowicz (. 3 years ago on Google • 38 reviews
    It's not a big museum if that's what you are looking for. There were two exhibitions when I was visiting. Nonetheless this place was really nice to visit. Both exhibitions were created with care. The light set-up was creating an amazing atmosphere. If you are interested in the arts of Asia and this place is on your way you should make sure to make a visit there.

  • 5/5 Radosław P. 2 months ago on Google • 11 reviews New
    A small museum, but with great exhibits. The tour is accompanied by a very pleasant atmosphere (music, lighting). You need to spend at least 30 minutes to see the exhibitions. Tickets at quite a pleasant price.

    Super positive place. Interesting exhibits, friendly service

  • 5/5 Niejestem P. 1 month ago on Google • 7 reviews New
    In general, I would give the museum 4.5 stars, not 5. It's a bit small and I missed music from a given region playing in the background in each part, and at the same time I also miss more detailed descriptions of some things. Despite everything, the museum is very nice, organized, everything is signed (at least in basic terms), clean.

    It's not very big but each room is packed with beautiful and interesting things. I particularly recommend it to fans of jewelry, crafts and musical instruments of different regions. I also visited a temporary exhibition where most art pieces were about representations of dance and music by different cultures. Very beautiful.

    This museum is awesome! What makes it special is it has exhibits from all parts of Asia and The Pacific, and you can’t stop wondering how all this could have been collected by one man! One not to miss!

    (Translated by Google) I was expecting more ... A tiny exhibition, but apart from the Chinese garden in the Royal Łazienki Park, it is probably the only thematic place. If anyone knows any more in the area, please give me a hint. (Original) Spodziewałem się więcej... Malutka wystawa, ale prócz Chińskiego ogrodu w Łazienkach Królewskich chyba jedyne tematyczne miejsce. Jeżeli ktoś zna jeszcze jakieś w okolicy proszę o podpowiedź.

  • 5/5 Wojciech A. 5 years ago on Google
    The permanent exhibition called 'Sound Zone' is rather small, but well-organised and equipped with multimedia that improves overall experience. At the same time I had an occasion to see a temporary exhibition 'Connecting Japan' which represents a collage of pictures that aim to connect two worlds - eastern and western. Short visit, but for free and worthy.

  • 5/5 Raphaël L. 4 years ago on Google
    Very nice experience, we travel around the world to discover the different methods used for writing and this for centuries,... Asian music also takes us on a journey over the centuries and literally plunges us into a world of total change of scenery! The museum is small but well structured, it is completely free! Very friendly and welcoming staff. To see without hesitation

    There was much to see and experience during the Asian Fair especially regarding the food. My wife particularly liked the jewelery (not so surprising huh?). It was unfortunately too crowded to enjoy it with 3yr old kid, but in the end it was worth our time.

    The museum's guardian is very uncultured and cannot adapt to a group of young people. He forbade the expression of emotions, false accusations were made against the students and he behaved without respect for other people.
