El museo es espectacular, tanto el edificio como las colecciones de arte romano antiguo y posterior. Es muy difícil conseguir entradas anticipadas (nosotros no conseguimos, pero pudimos entrar comprando entradas de último momento: cada hora entregan 13 entradas en orden de llegada. Pídanlas en Información “Last minute tickets” Nosotros fuimos a las 10:20 de la mañana de un martes de febrero y pudimos entrar en el turno de las 11 horas, fuimos muy afortunadas. A las 11.10 comienzan a entregar más entradas. Tiene una muy buena cafetería y un parque para pasear luego.

Increíble lugar, está lleno de detalles, desde el piso, el techo, los muros, las esquinas y casi las esculturas de Bernini y pinturas que te quedas mirando horas de tanta precisión. La galería vale completamente la pena, cada sala tiene algo especial. Es recomendable comprar boletos con anticipación.

Hermoso, una joya poco frecuentada por los turistas en Roma. Tienes que hacer reservación dos meses antes y llegar a la hora indicada. El museo tiene obras de Bernini y Caravaggio, las esculturas de Bernini son impresionantes. Han hecho cambios muy positivos, porque ahora cada obra tiene un código QR que te permite encontrar en tu celular la información de la obra. Esto ha hecho desaparecer las audioguias. También cambió que ahora no está prohibido tomar fotos, claro, sin flash. Esto te permite hacer un buen recuerdo de tu visita. Son dos pisos de exposición, una tiene la colección de esculturas y el segundo piso en la pinacoteca. La colección es hermosa, pero el edificio en sí es hermoso. Tiene unos murales muy bellos. Se recorre en menos de 2 horas, lo recomiendo muchísimo. No es caro y se disfruta.
