The Museum, inaugurated in December 2008, is housed in the historic Palazzo Mazzonis, an eighteenth century monumental building .
A discerning and careful restoration has enhanced the structure and decorations and created optimal display facilities. The galleries are arranged over the three levels of the building and contain art from South and Southeast Asia, the most important Italian collection of Chinese funerary art from the Neolithic age to the Tang period (tenth century AD), religious and secular art from Japan, art from the Himalayas and a smaller but remarkable collection of Islamic art.
The ground level contains two exquisite and quite unique Japanese Gardens as well as a space for temporary exhibitions.
With the Torino + Piemonte card you can make a reservation at the following link. Reservation is not mandatory, but recommended in the weekend
