It is nice place to visit. For local it's about 50k-75k if im not mistaken and for tourist is 150k rupiahs. You are nit allowed to take pictures inside the museum. But I take pics with the birds there. They have cafe and also good view. Very recommended

Unique place. Must visit when you are in Bali. Lots of painting by Mr. Blanco with artistic frame. Each frame is dedicated for it painting and built in harmony.
We are lucky got story telling by beautiful staff who told the meaning of each painting and who was the model.

Big building, three storey which represent heaven, earth and spirit world.

Spend more than one hour to see each room, including the studio where Mr. Blanco sit to paint during his life.

Definitely worth a visit. Blanco's slight obsession with Balinese women breasts is on full display within a large, colonial style mansion turned gallery. Don't forget to visit the rooftop with some Ubud views guarded by statues.
The grounds also contain a garden with a number of friendly parrots that sit on your head, hands and shoulders if you wish so, workshop and temple dedicated to the artist's beloved wife.
The entrance is 100k per person.

A 2 acre museum dominated with red n turquoise colours. Some parts were Blanco residence, some were built before his passing.
The upper main gate shape of the museum was taken from the of his flipping signature.
Most of his paintings are in nudes, so not really suitable to bring kids here, some are really bold n covered inside wooden doors.
His original studio can be seen too, you can even take pictures there.
Overall, an unique experience.

A plus point; a guide will accompany you along the way, they can take your pictures too.

A trip in an other world! For all people that think a smart phone is the world : go and have a look how we older folks mastered live. A small electricity blackout could not stop us! Amazing paintings and a real vision that turned into reality!

Nice glimpse into life of an influential art figure of Ubud, impressive mansion and tranquil garden with cool parrots. Go up the roof to see Ubud from the top. Tho all artworks are quite similar and focuse mostly on semi-naked and vaguely drawn women so that will depend on whether you like this genre and style..

In the Blanco Renaissance museum, the majority of Blanco's works depicting the beauty and beauty of women can be found.

What is unique, the Blanco Renaissance Museum building really depicts the life of Antonio Blanco as a writer of Spanish blood who lives in Bali.

From the outside, this museum has an architectural style similar to a typical Balinese temple and is decorated with various traditional knick-knacks.

Entering the interior, visitors will be greeted by a European-style mansion complete with large pillars and a self-portrait of Antonio Blanco.
