Museum Of Glass And Crystal

Reviewed By 2travelbugNow4 - Toronto, Canada

We were amazed at the collection and charmed by this unique place. The aristocratic owner of the house gives the tour. He's been developing the collection since he was 9 years old. His passion and affection for his beautiful collection is infectious. We were encouraged to get up close things to really look and at times even touch! Furniture and paintings of his ancestors complement the collection. Thank goodness he saved all these delicate objects from oblivion. I would recommend this tour for adults and young adults.

The same complex - a converted tobacco factory - that houses the Russian Museum also contains this unique place. It is a combination of automobile history - with emphasis on its beginnings and the classic cars - with the female fashion of the times as well as with history, highlighting the famous people who owned or drove several of the exhibits. Very much worth a visit, even for those who are not fans of cars or lovers of fashion.

Malaga Aeronautical Museum

Our Philosophy: Aircraft are not for show, they are meant to be touched. The museum is open to all, whether you are new to aviation or not. All who want to help out have their place as a Museum Friend. We want to make aviation approachable to everyone. We are one of the few museums worldwide that allow free entry to its aircraft cockpits on demand. Flying today has become so routine that we sometimes forget the magic that is rising into the air like a bird, and soaring through the sky. So we want to show you all aspects of aviation in an approachable way; so that you feel completely at home. Our aircraft are restored selflessly by our volunteers: we gladly open their doors for you, because we believe sitting at a pilot's seat is an enriching experience.

Amazing museum, absolutley huge private collection, a must if in Ronda. Everything from ancient coins to dagerotypes from ages past, history, memorabilia, the santa inquision is incredibly gory and darkly portraied. It will take a while, it is worth every penny...4 euros!

I'm a keen museum visitor, so have lots to compare, and this is one of the very best in the Costa del Sol area! It is full of objects from times gone by, before tourism and modern life overtook the little village of Mijas, and I found it absolutely fascinating. Do visit it, I can't wait to go back!

Municipal Museum

Reviewed By FrugalPensioner - Dublin, Ireland

This Museum is near the harbour and very easy to access by bus. Here is a tip! Buy a 10 journey bus ticket for under €9 approx , the public bus service is fantastic!I I was very pleased with my visit. I love art and found a fabulous 20th Century collection of Posters from the first half of the 20th Century. There was a lovely little area with computers which seemed to be for children as it had some monitors you could touch and models. Me being a big kid tried them out!! Its not a huge museum and would take less than an hour to go through. It has a lift. The price is free!!!! for European Passport holders and only €1.50 for others. Its not far from the Pompidou Centre. The staff there were really friendly and helpful. I even got a nice small guide for €3 "Breve Guia" in Spanish. There are lovely places to walk nearby and plenty of places to eat for all budgets.
