I wanted to visit this museum because it houses the famous "Girl with a Pearl Earring" painting. I'm not an art connoisseur... and if not for the movie starring Colin Firth and Scarlett Johansson, I wouldn't know about it pun, hehe...Before datang, I had done some research and discovered the Museumkaart pass which gives you access to all museums in Nederlands untuk selama setahun. It costs about 35euros... mahal tapi lepas kira-kira, it will be cheaper to buy the pass instead of paying separate admissions. Plus, the thing boleh guna setahun and we can pass it to Faz when we're done with it.
The museum isn't very big. It was previously the home of a rich merchant. Dia donate the house together dengan segala harta to jadikan museum.
Johannes Vermeer, Girl with a Pearl Earring
Rembrandt, Self-Portrait
Peter Paul Rubens, Old woman and a boy with candles
Johannes Vermeer, View of Delft
The building itself is an artwork. Rich decor... grand staircase... velvet walls. Tapi cannot take pix inside so nothing to show.

Spent about 40 minutes exploring the museum. Next destination... Delft. But kena cari train station dulu...
