Is Musée du Quai Branly – Jacques Chirac worth it solo?

Worth itSolo

Solo, Musée du Quai Branly – Jacques Chirac works.

A Jean Nouvel building wrapped in a vertical garden, near the Eiffel, holding non-Western art that the big museums sideline. Atmospheric, dimly lit galleries and a calm café garden make it a refreshing change of pace from the European-art circuit.
