A new landmark

Designed by acclaimed Pritzker-winning architect Kengo Kuma, the new building is a fluid, welcoming space that invites you to experience art in perfect harmony with its surroundings. Arch Daily’s Building of the Year 2025.

Engawa, connecting inside and outside

The striking canopy inspired by Japanese architecture creates a seamless transition between architecture and nature – a sheltered yet open space, its surface shimmering with hundreds of Portuguese ceramic tiles.

An oasis in the city

Wander through the Gulbenkian Garden, where winding paths and a lush natural setting offer a peaceful retreat within the city. A place to slow down after a visit, relax, and enjoy the beauty of nature.
