BENAKI MUSEUM

Noted for its vast array of discerning objects, the Benaki Museum also sells copies of much of what it has on exhibition like reliefs & sculptures, jewelry and ceramics. It also offers a children’s corner that allows tots to learn at their own speed, while the adults are free to peruse the museum in peace.
