Affonso Eduardo Reidy's 1958 modernist masterpiece sits in the Aterro do Flamengo park with sweeping views of Guanabara Bay and Sugarloaf, and the building is as much the attraction as the art inside. MAM holds a strong collection of Brazilian modernism and hosts ambitious temporary exhibitions. The sculpture garden and surrounding park make it ideal for a half-day outing. Check ahead as the museum has had intermittent closure periods for renovation.
