The post Hobart’s MONA Museum is Worth the Visit appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>MONA is, first and foremost, a museum and its amazing exhibits deserve a moment of your time. Most of the art pieces, around 2,000 in total, are a part of David Walsh’s private collection. They’re displayed in a pretty unique way, with no labels, and in non-chronological order, but you can learn a lot about them thanks to the audio guide.
In addition to being home to an impressive art collection, MONA’s building is a work of art in its own right. This is one of the biggest architectural marvels in all of Tasmania and it’s equally impressive when you get inside thanks to its futuristic spiral staircases.
If you want to end your visit to MONA on a high note, visit one of the chic cafés and restaurants on its premises. The Source and Faro are two of the most popular options, but wine lovers should also give Moorilla Wine Bar a shot.

]]>If you’re looking for a fancy dinner in a lavish environment after your visit to MONA, Faro is the place to be. It offers a sleek modern experience, a beautiful location, and an extensive menu offering a wide range of seafood and local specialties.
Another great option for fans of fine dining, this stylish art museum restaurant is known for its contemporary French foods, robust wine list, and amazing water views.
If fine dining simply isn’t your thing, and you want to have a low-key experience and enjoy some comfort foods, head to this American diner-inspired spot with a great selection of burgers.
Due to its location within the Moorilla winery, a visit to MONA is incomplete without some wine tasting. The best place to do it is Moorilla Wine Bar, which offers a great selection of wines, share plates, and seasonal treats.

]]>The museum contains all the pieces which have caught Walsh’s eye over the years – 1,900 to be precise. From Stone Age arrowheads and Roman coins to surrealist contemporary art, Walsh has selected an eclectic range of art.
What makes the museum particularly special is its surroundings. The setting surrounding the museum is one of the most beautiful in the world and it has been filled with wonderful art installations. As visitors arrive, they can watch dolphins playing in the surrounding waters, making the experience truly unique.
The atmosphere inside the museum is intentionally ominous. There are no windows and much of the museum is built underground. Walsh intended to pull visitors into a secret world and upon arrival, guests descend down a seemingly endless flight of stairs.
The MONA is frequently voted one of the greatest museums in the world and Lonely Planet place it above New York’s MoMA and London’s Tate Modern. Hobart many not be on many people’s bucket list, but the MOMA should definitely put it on your radar.
