The Belz Museum of Asian and Judaic Art

If you have never been to this museum, you really need to visit.

It is a Memphis gem and not highly published.

Make sure to check their website because they have limited open days.

The photo below of an ivory ball with balls inside balls all with carvings and turned on a lathe is worth the visit alone.

The Belz Museum of Asian and Judaic Art is located at 119 South Main Street in the Pembroke Square Building, at the intersection of Gayoso Avenue and South Main Street.

 

The museum is just one block west of the Peabody Hotel and is accessible from the Main Street Trolley line. Within walking distance of great shopping, dining, and Memphis’ own Beale Street, the museum is in the heart of Downtown Memphis.

 

Garage, Lot, and Metered parking for the Belz Museum is available along Peabody Place.

The Tower Garage, located at 110 Peabody Place Avenue, is the closest garage and provides monitored parking. The garage entrance is on Peabody Place between 2nd and Main Street.
