Keeping the MASP high off the ground still didn’t deter robbers from stealing a $50 mill Picasso from it in 2007. One of the better museums in the city boasts multi levels of art. Start at the top with religious art, and as you descend, the art moves onto moderns like Matisse and gems from the archive like El Greco and Paul Gauguin. Easy location makes it a good respite from the shopping nearby. Photo: Phuong-Cac Nguyen
