Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, Art museum in Civic Center, San Francisco, US.

The Asian Art Museum spans three floors, displaying over 18,000 artworks from China, Korea, Japan, India, and other Asian countries.

The museum originated from Chicago millionaire Avery Brundage's donation in the 1960s, initially located in Golden Gate Park before moving to Civic Center in 2003.

The collection includes sculptures, paintings, textiles, and ceremonial objects that represent various religious and social traditions across Asian civilizations.

The museum offers free guided tours, audio guides in multiple languages, and special exhibitions, with reduced admission prices on Thursday evenings.

The second floor features an authentic Japanese tea house, constructed in Kyoto, dismantled, and reassembled by Japanese craftsmen in San Francisco.
