Best Museum in Mexico

D	Derek Ingram on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Took our scooter out and about and found this by accident. A very interesting and tranquil spot.
I	Isaí Mejía Rodríguez on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Quaint little museum, former house of José Chavez Morado, a local painter & sculptor of great talent; and his wife, Olga Costa, who was also a great painter. The museum is small but it packs value in its bite-sized exhibits of Mexican modern art & the works of Olga and José. The house itself is a sight to behold.
G	Gomez Addams on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely intimate museum dedicated to the work of Olga Costa. The attendant told me Jose Morado’s art is located in Leon, not here. Olga’s art is quite good, and the home is adorable. I watched a short video interview with her while I was there, and she had a fascinating life. I had not been previously familiar with her work but I left impressed. The most touching thing I encountered was a love poem written by Jose upon her death. It was on a plaque in the outdoor garden and clearly showed how much he loved her.
A	Alicia Robles on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The place is kind o hidden so you can view the place at your own pace. You can't take pictures of Olga's artwork but you can at the rest of the house. The garden gives you a peaceful feeling, I enjoyed the picture album, it would be nice if they captured the pictures.
D	Dahye Jung on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A painting on the wall in the enterance of an alley caught my eyes. You don’t expect something valuable inside but a little well-managed-garden-like museum.
M	Matthew Rafat on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Like a miniature version of Frida Kahlo’s house. Well-preserved home on a beautiful lot with a garden and one floor of artwork by the house’s owners. (March 2019)
E	Ethan Conroy on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Cute little museum that’s maybe a 15 minute walk from Embajadores. The walk follows the river and is quite enjoyable. I was told by the caretaker that the house was originally part of the water tower and it’s connected to the aqueduct system. Definitely worth an hour or so.
C	Claire Haffner on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely little museum with a gorgeous patio. I had never heard of either artist before but learned a lot on the tour and am now a big Olga Costa fan. Not sure if they also give tours in English but would recommend visiting!
