Besides art, excellent location for viewing the whole city

Great museum, expensive food. But the view is spactacular. Best to get there using hop-on-hop-off. Avoid the peddlers.

Is it possible to visit the Rooftop Terraces without purchasing the museum ticket? I only want to go to the Rooftop Terrace, but not in the museum. Please let me know!

The terraces in front of the museum are open to all, you only need to pay for admission to the museum itself. The terraces give great views over the fountains, especially when the Musicam fountains are playing.
