Pierre Richer de Belleval founded France’s oldest botanical garden in 1593. Today, it is a charming array of tropical greenhouses, ancient trees and worn benches. The ancient trees provide plenty of shaded areas to make it a sought-after spot in the heat of summer.

This beautiful example of Moorish-inspired architecture was built in 1910. The minarets, arches and spirals make it one of the most attractive historic buildings in the capital. It still operates as one of the city's railway stations.

The Orihuela Archaeology Museum has its origins in the former Santo Domingo Museum of Antiquities, established in 1902 by Jesuit priest Julio Furgús, who donated numerous pieces. Created by the Orihuela Town Council, the museum has been housed in various locations, including the Palacio de Teodomiro, the Municipal Hospital, the Rubalcaba Palace, and since 1997, its current location at the Church of San Juan de Dios, which was built in the mid-18th century. The museum's collection features artefacts that span a broad range of periods, from the Paleolithic era to the early 19th century. The majority of the items were excavated or discovered in the town and its surrounding areas, often through the museum's own investigations. The same building also houses the Exhibition Hall, formerly the men's ward of the hospital. This spacious, rectangular room with barrel-vaulted ceilings hosts temporary exhibitions and various cultural events.

Museum MACAN is Indonesia’s first museum dedicated to modern and contemporary art. It grew out of collector Haryanto Adikoesoemo’s personal collection, which includes works by global names such as Andy Warhol, alongside leading Indonesian artists. The space hosts rotating exhibitions, installations, and interactive pieces, making it one of Jakarta’s most engaging art destinations.
