Fantastic place to spend a half weekend. It's not huge like ROM and you can explore the whole museum within an afternoon, given, there are no additional exhibition/event happening. Their 'Light' exhibition was amazing! We saw a lot of visitors from all age groups. It has a cozy vibe inside and everyone is super friendly. Also, the food in their little canteen was better than expected. Their main exhibit, showcasing Islam's historical rise across the world, with lots of real scripture, inventions, relics, etc. was informative and displayed in an engaging way. The only reason I'm taking one star is because I wanted to learn more and see more. Just when I went deep into the historical artifacts, it abruptly ended leaving a bad taste in my mouth. However, I'd highly recommend this little gem near Toronto.
Good place to visit if interested in archaeology and want to learn about civilizations. Tickets are reasonable and can spend 2 to 3 hours easily. Staff is courteous and guide you where to start. One advice to museum management is to have some volunteers moving around to explain more details about the artifacts. Ample parking place but no EV charging stations.
I liked the exhibits on the first floor quite a lot. Very interesting and historical pieces they are displaying here.nnThey also had a performance of traditional northern Indian dancing, as well as someone playing the drum. It was quite enjoyable.nnThe top floor had an exhibit on lights which was quite modern. A lot of light and colour present within those pieces.nnThere was plenty of parking when we went there on a weekday. The outside was also super cool with the water ponds and trees in front.nnI would recommend exploring this museum.
The Aga Khan Museum is a stunning space that beautifully showcases Islamic art, culture, and history. The architecture is modern and serene, creating a peaceful atmosphere that enhances the experience. The exhibits are thoughtfully curated, with highlights including intricate manuscripts and vibrant ceramics. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, adding to the visit’s enjoyment. It’s a must-see for anyone interested in art and culture, offering both education and inspiration. Highly recommended!
A nice museum dedicated to telling the story of the historical creativity and diversity of Islamic art from Spain east to China. Their bistro offers amazing Middle Eastern food in a beautiful setting.nnThe collection in the museum is not large and can easily be viewed within a couple of hours.
