Question of the week: as we prepare for break week travels, do you have a museum or gallery in Europe that you'd recommend? "As it looks like Kris and I seem to be trading off with our favourite cities this week, how about my favourite in Paris, to follow up from hers?
It's a tough pick, but my favourite has to be the Rodin Museum. Housed in the petite rococo chateau of Hôtel Biron, where Rodin once rented rooms, the Musée Rodin makes fantastic use of the building and its manicured gardens. The collection, not just of works, but of models, sketches, letters and photographs, is breathtaking. They offer a discount for people between 18 and 24, but if you're not sure you want to spend out even on a reduced ticket for a museum dedicated to a single artist? The 1 euro garden-only ticket has to be the best bargain in Paris!"
