Often overlooked by guidebooks (probably because this is not the "typical" museum that you would visit in Mexico), the Soumaya holds one of the biggest collections of sculptures by Auguste Rodin in the world (really impressive!). There are also works by Degas, Renoir, van Gogh, Murillo, 'EL Greco', Miro, Tamayo, etc. Entrance fee is 1 euro (10 pesos) (Sundays and Mondays free). It is located in the south part of the city (San Angel area), you can stop by on your way to/from Ciudad Universitaria.
