Musee du Quai Branly

A couple of days ago I went to "investigate" the new museum at Quai Branly which was opened a bit in a hurry as it has to be remembered as one of the accomplishments of the Chirac presidency.

The Eiffel tower can be seen from many areas and adds a great dimension to the museum experience.
There is a glass wall protecting the museum and the gardens from the busy quai.

View from the pedestrian bridge going from Quai Branly to right bank.
It really is a great experience to go there as the museum (Design by Jean Nouvel who also designed Institut du Monde Arabe and Fondation Cartier) is beautiful and the use of the space with glass and gardens is amazing. I understant there is a restaurant on the roof top that offers exquisite views. I spent 6 hours there and was really amazed the whole time.
