I have never been but my entire sight seeing family did a day I was sick and everyone loved it so much. Very educational even from hearing what my dad had to say after I would love to and will go myself . I have walked by the architecture for years. Nowadays you can build a pyramid physically and visually proven.
This is a pleasant visit for the family, Sunday’s are good with children as they have some craft activities from 12-4pm. The main exhibition was well laid out and plenty of manuscripts to see. The special exhibition had many beautiful garments. I enjoyed learning Islamic history from Persia, South Asia, China as well as some Christian and Jewish history. Quite amazed by the historical manuscript collection.
Had a birthday lunch with my sister at Diwan today. I ordered Tandoori chicken wrap w/fries. The sandwich was delicious. I feel like the wrap was made fresh. The chicken had a really nice kick to it. I'm a spice lover. I was afraid that it may be too spicy after the initial hit, but it only got more delicious. Excellent choice! I would definitely go back and I would definitely order the same meal. I had the prosecco and it went to my head, 1/2 a glass. A lightweight! The fries were a little limp and greasy. I think they could have done a better job with those. Lunch was priced totally reasonable; under $50 with an alcoholic beverage. Generous portion also.
The Aga Khan Museum was beautiful and nicely curated. Give yourself at least an hour and a half to go through it, ideally two hours
