Interesting museum with many works to showcase Bolivian art in different periods. The entrance fee is 35 Bolivianos and they don't accept cards. The museum is not that big and you can see everything in less than 2hours.

A modern Bolivian art collection in a beautiful colonial building. The focus is on women artists and in art. Very thought provoking and interesting.

Located in the popular square, Plaza Murillo, a small exhibition of Bolivian art spread across three floors. Get ready to climb up some stairs as there is no elevator in the building. The building is used to be the residence of Mayor Don Francisco Tadeo Diez de Medina y Vidango before it was converted to present use in 1960s. Ticket costs 20bs for foreigner and can be purchase at the site.

Not sure about some of the negative reviews. Yes, it is small, but it is well laid out, interesting and in a stunning building. Some of the art is breathtaking and a strole around for an hour and a half was plenty for us. All uplifted by the art and building we carried on with our La Paz look around.

Beautiful art with some very powerful political and cultural themes.

If religious artwork is your thing, then this museum will be your heaven. Otherwise, it's not worth the 20Bs. You follow a designated route through the museum to view all of the open galleries. Unfortunately, none of the other temporary galleries were open when I was there, and I was in and out in less than an hour. For those interested, descriptions are only in Spanish. Maybe if there is a temporary exhibition that piques your interest (or you're an aforementioned devotee of religious iconography), it may be worth the price of admission. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend visiting.
