Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles:  The Getty Center offers virtual tours through Google Street View, so you can not only view the artwork and sculptures on display but also enjoy the amazing architecture.

8. The Museu de Arte de São Paulo:  The Museu de Arte de São Paulo in Brazil houses some incredible works of art, but the thing that really sets it apart from other art museums is the way the works are displayed. Mounted with concrete blocks and glass, these artworks look like they're floating in midair.
