Ever thought about museum-hopping through Argentina? Maybe you should, because the country has some downright fascinating ones. To ensure you make time to visit the best, here’s our guide to the top six.

1. Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes

Museum

Buenos Aires is home to several stand-out art museums, but if you’re going to pick one to visit, the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes has the largest public art collection in all of Latin America. The fine art museum features the works of European and Argentine masters from the Middle Ages through to the 20th century, including a surprisingly large collection of impressionist work (in one wing alone you’ll find Van Gogh, Claude Monet, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paul Gauguin, Berthe Morisot, and Camille Pissarro). With 12,000 works of art, Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes allows for an extraordinarily comprehensive tour of the history of art.
