So interesting to look at the museums and revisit history of different areas. We went on summer solstice, so all Smithsonian museums were open until midnight and there were singers outside that were very nice. It highlights so many parts and contrasts different cultures with real artifacts. It was definitely worth visiting.

Never been here before and I'm a DC local. Looks are deceiving because although the from the outside it looks fairly small, on the inside it's HUGE due to it primarily being underground. This place is filled with gorgeous art work, jewelry, pottery and artifacts from all over the world. I went here to see the Chinese princesses temporary exhibit and it was astounding. You could literally spend all day in here or more because of its sheer size and amount of INTERESTING objects in it. Just because this isn't a 'Smithsonian' do not disregard going to see it, it's absolutely stunning and you won't regret it. Can't believe it's taken me so long to find this place. Also it's not crowded, and quiet. Great place to escape the calamity of the mall.

Beautifully place, beautiful scenery! Their current exhibits on dining in ancient Persia, and Chinese empresses are incredible!

Amazing Asian art collections. The Freer Gallery and Sackler Gallery are combined in one via under ground tunnels. While the Freer has the obvious entrance and typical National Mall museum facade, the Sackler is housed under the nearby garden just behind the Smithsonian castle. Inside are so many beautiful art works spanning Persian, Indian, and Chinese, and Japanese empires. It very easy to spend many hours inside just strolling at a relaxed pace and taking it all in. The gardens offer a great place for a respite from all the walking. Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed this gallary/ museum. The displays were breathtaking. It is a nice place, very clean and spacious. There are many rooms with displays so if you're someone who really does enjoy exploring artwork and learning about different cultures you may need a few hours to get through all the displays and ti truly absorb what is there. I cannot wait to go back again. The staff was also very friendly and helpful.

We took advantage of the holiday weekend to visit the Gallery and we’re glad we did. The Arts of Asia meet America is amazing. The place is clean and airy, the collection is rich with artifacts and very informative, yet the display is not crowded. I particularly love the collection of Tibetan Buddhas. I would recommend this Gallery to the Asian Arts lovers.
