Museum of Old and New Art (MONA), Tasmania Overview

The Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) is located on the Berriedale Peninsula, about 15 minutes from Hobart, Tasmania. Renowned for its provocative and immersive exhibits, MONA features contemporary art alongside antiquities, housed in an architecturally striking subterranean space. Visitors can reach the museum by ferry, which adds a scenic experience, and explore its on-site winery and restaurant.

MONA opened in 2011, but years on it still continues to grab the spotlight for it's insane collection, unparalleled design, and uncoventional exhibitions. The entire museum's building and interiors will be a treat to your eyes, done up with supreme elegance. And when you can get over that, you will notice the extremely vast and diverse collection of art and historic items on display. These range from ancient antiquities to breathtaking modern art from David Walsh's private collection, who calls the museum an 'adult Disneyland'. The place hosts extremely intriguing events throughout the year as well. The museum itself is built within the bounds of the Moorila winery, and as such has a brewery, a winery and a fine dining restaurant, all open to the public. There is also a tennis court, a gymnasium, and a heated pool. Do you need more reason to visit?
