How to Enjoy Pinto Art Museum in Three Steps
First of all, allot time.
Pintô Art Museum sits inside a two hectare garden complex known as the Silangan Gardens, which in itself an ecological work with its variety of plants and flora, and a sanctuary for birds and local fauna. (source) So being able to check out each and every artwork will take some time.
But that is also a very good thing about this museum -- because it is big, no matter how many guests it has, there's still ample room to enjoy each painting or sculpture. Download museum map here to see where the several galleries are located.
Second, be attentive.
There are several random installation pieces jutting out of the greens in the lush and refreshing gardens, or hanging from trees, or above arches. There are pieces that moves if you touch them, some you can even ride, and some breathtaking views afar, so paying attention will, well, pay off.
And also because of the greens, it's fairly windy and there are several shaded areas.
Third, take photos. Of course, take photos.
A lot of instagram posts have been pinned at Pintô Art Museum and there is a good reason for that. The place is amazing and photographs very, very well. In fact, they have photoshoot packages that are not really cheap, so appreciate and get your best poses together and have fun!
Step Four: A bonus. Eat at the Café Rizal. They have a good selection of food and drinks. The Tamarind smoothie is a must try!
