Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is a relatively small museum and you probably only need 30 minutes here, 45 maximum.
They have some really lovely glass sculptures on show here by Ramon Orlina. The museum also displays some paintings and sculptures by other well know Philippine artists such as BenCab. The pieces are well displayed and not crammed in.
Well worth stopping in for a short visit.

We visted the museum which is an art gallery of glass sculptures and othe pieces of art plus a sculpture garden. The sculptures are quite stunning and this really is a little gem of a place near the Tagatay markets. Modern art that you really would like in your home.

the place is nice. the sculptures and paintings were all equally nice and interesting to look at. the only downside would have to be the sculptures displayed in the garden coz it's all open space and it rained when we reached that area. there's no turning back and there's no place to wait out the rain coz your only way is the exit which is other side of the entrance. so you would really get wet and there's no one to assist you

One of my favorite sculptors is Ramon Orlina so I was looking forward to visiting his museum. We were greeted by a pleasant reception staff who asked us to pay a very reasonable entrance fee of P130 per person. A few steps from the reception desk is an area where you sit down to watch a brief video about Mr. Orlina before starting your tour. And then you help yourself to several floors of beautiful Orlina pieces. I enjoyed myself because I really love his work and hope to own one someday. It was a good idea to have the work of other talented Filipino artists displayed at one floor. At the end you are allowed to go down to a garden where there was an amphitheater and large sculpture pieces were displayed. We stayed here for a bit to enjoy the view and the tranquility.
The museum is a great destination in Tagaytay, definitely something one shouldn’t miss if you’re an Orlina fan.

The Museo Orlina is in Tagaytay near the junction of the Santa Rosa Road overlooking Lake Taal. You drive down a steep slope off the road to front gate. From the outside it looks small but it is built on a cliff and you enter on the third floor.
The Museo displays the art work of Ramon Orlina, mostly sculptures in glass. The works are various shapes and sizes, he uses colour and shape and then captures the light to present something truly amazing and beautiful.
His nude in nude, is at first look a square green glass cube, but as you look closer inside is body, you move around to make. Then from another she disappears and another appears. Both are like trapped in a cocoon.....

Ramon Orlina is one of the Philippines most celebrated artists. His pioneering in glass sculpture is amazing to see up close so be sure to visit his gallery.
If you take your children, keep them under control as the artwork is delicate.

I don’t think they sell any of the pieces there. But best to ask at the Reception area.
Hi! Would it be fine to buy tickets there or should I buy tickets online beforehand?

Hi! I'm a college professor handling Thesis Writing.
I aske 1 grp of students to make a research paper about your museum, a case study maybe. Will they be allowed to get information about the history of the museum, its operation and sustainability?
Can we go there to interview the owner or maybe someone who is in-charge of the museum?
Thank you for your interest in the museum. If you may kindly redirect your inquiry to our e-mail address so we may forward a letter request to the owner. Thank you.

It will only take a few minutes drive from Zen to Museo Orlina, if you're familiar with Picnic Grove it's the same way going there, it's I think halfway or less to Picnic Grove.

From sky ranch, you can take any public transport going to Tagaytay-Santa Rosa Road or Tagaytay-Calamba Road and alight at the T- intersection. You can just walk from there descending to the museum.
Private cars take the same route and you can park at the museum area. 😉
