We visited the Palace of Honour and the tickets there gave us free admission to this museum. It is located near the Botanical garden and opposite the California institute of sciences. They have exhibits on two floors and a viewing tower. The exhibits vary from sculpture to, paintings, Native American artefacts and an outdoor sculpture garden. The parking is underground probably shared with the California Institute of sciences. They also have a cafeteria which we skipped due to lack of time. The exhibits are interesting and take some time for proper appreciation. We could spare only three hours. The viewing tower gives a good view of the city and the surrounding areas. There was a fashion display which was for a limited time. The only issue was that we got confused on the proper route to follow to cover all the exhibits. Otherwise it was a great place.

Whether to go to this museum really depends on the special exhibit. The regular works weren’t really interesting compared to what you can see in LA, New York, London or Paris. We were interested in the fashion special exhibit, which was small but interesting. I’m not sure if it was worth the admission price, but we didn’t regret the visit or time.

Great SF Museum. This museum has great special exhibitions. Every-time I come. This time it was the Fashion of San Francisco. Famous dress designers had beautiful assortments of dresses on display on mannequins. The rest of the galleries have art works and artifacts from all over. It’s in Golden Gate and will worth it. I am a member which is great to get in anytime. It’s easy to Uber to the location. It’s my fav besides Legion of Honor.
