They make you wear slippers over your shoes to protect the original hard wood floors. It's a little slippery and can be dangerous. They let the elderly and stroller pushers avoid the slippery mess. I think it's a ploy for them to get us to polish the floors, since we're scooting around in slipper buffing the hard wood floor. Unfortunately, they make you check your bags in and no picture taking is allowed. Maybe it's so more people will buy their gift books or for more people to visit so can actually see what they have. So no pictures inside the beautiful house, is a bit of a downer. Otherwise, is definitely worth seeing if your in Petrópolis.

There are enormous paintings, small paintings, sculptures, statues, vases, and more. Best of all, it's free and air conditioned :)

Yelp Review 2025 #179:…read more I originally wanted to visit this museum because of its architecture. It reminds me of Ciudad de las Artes y Ciencias in Valencia, Spain. Museu do Amanha or Museum of Tomorrow is a nice museum in the Centro area of Rio focusing on visually presenting in a scientific method how our current affects our future. During my visit, the exhibits had climate crisis (no longer climate change) as the theme. Full-price tickets are 40 Brazilian Reais or under $8 which is not bad at all. If you want to check out specific exhibits, it's extra. The goal is to hopefully, open up our eyes as to how our actions or lack thereof affect our future in 50 years time or future generations. And bring awareness so we can make better choices. The resources we enjoy now may not be around in the future - nothing lasts forever unless, we do better. I visited on a Saturday afternoon and this museum was packed! I would've picked a different day and time but that's just how my itinerary worked. I only did a quick walk until I got overwhelmed by the crowd and I left. You can take pictures without flash/ annoying selfie sticks and short video clips in all areas of the museum except for Cosmos. There's a shop and a cafe. There are also vendors outside the museum selling popcorn, churros and açaí bowls. It turns out the architecture looked familiar because Museum do Amanha and Ciudad de las Artes y Ciencias were designed by the same Spanish architect, Santiago Calatrava.

Highly recommend.
