4. Museo de Jade (Jade Museum)

Housed in a stunning black glass structure, this popular museum holds the largest collection of American jade. These lovely gems, dating from 500 BC to AD 800, are showcased with intricate lighting, spacing and groupings to allow visitors to appreciate them in full detail. In addition to the outstanding jade displays, the museum also houses pre-Columbian figurines, ceramics, gold miniatures and other precious gems. As a side note, the 11th floor of the building offers a great lookout point for getting a bird's-eye-view of the surrounding area.   (© 10Best)
