There are so many things to love about the Rubin.  The beautiful wood lined first floor entrance and cafe, the Tibetan shrine room, the small and perfectly curated shop and then there are all the stunning museum exhibits: sculptures, wall panels, paintings on paper scrolls. 

Start at the top and work your way down through the floors using the wide circular staircase. The space has been designed to be harmonious and tranquil and your journey through the museum flows around in a spiral until you are back on the ground floor. Stop and enjoy a lovely cup of tea, savoring every drop of calm before you head back out into the bustle of the city.
