Summary

Because the vast range of museums and galleries in a major city can be baffling, "Insight Guides' Museums and Galleries" categorises venues by type and provides detailed reviews of their content. This new series not only provides expert advice on what's really worth seeing but also includes background information, detailed maps and floor plans and, in line with Insight Guides' tradition, some stunning photography.
