The Blue Lady, Impressionism style
Admission to this world class art and history museum is free to enter, but you would absolutely engage in this stunning museum as it has many great art galleries and art masterpieces to attract you. As you could see from these pictures, there are a lot of remarkable art collections from this museum. La Parisienne, Pierre Auguste Renoir by the famous French impressionist painter, allows us to preview the real life of the high class French lady in oil painting. This traditional portrait reflects the real natural color, lighting, costume of the society in that time. How remarkable is that? As you could also find many historical art pieces from the past in Ancient China. The dancing horse represents the history of the imperial court during the Tang Dynasty. If you would like to explore more art pieces, please feel free to visit this museum and its free entry.

Do you think everyone loves Venus? She is the symbol of the best lover and brings many love stories to us. During the Renaissance period, Palma il Vecchio brought her to life again with his secret lover, the God of War and his beloved son, Cupid. This well known and world famous painting, Mars, Venus and Cupid (about 1520), attracts many people from all around the world to see and feel it. National Museum Cardiff also has many precious paintings and this includes Water Lilies from Claude Monet and Rain Auvers from Vincent Van Gogh. In here, you could definitely immerse yourself into this Renaissance art world.

Excellent free activity
Cardiff museum is one of the best in the United Kingdom in my opinion. It's a great free, fun and interesting option to have, and good for all weathers.
The classical art section here is excellent with many masters on display such as Renoir, Monet, Van Gogh, Turner and more. The display is well laid out and comes with information about each painting or sculpture.
There is a prehistoric section with information about dinosaurs, mammoths, fossils and so on. And the museum has rotating special exhibitions which change every few months
The building is also gorgeous, a fine example of Victorian era architecture
