Best Museum in Mexico

D	Dennis Nelson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I believe the purpose of the museum needs to be more clearly started at the start. Not recommended for anyone who doesn't speak advanced Spanish.
J	John Atkinson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Downstairs only open today. no idea why rest of building closed. completely in Spanish, no Audio or other guides. great exhibition explaining the numbers used by Mayan. the building is well painted and presented. price is 60 pesatas. it's on a beautiful boulevard.
A	Anant Gupta on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wrongly advertised to be open and no clear directions on where the entrance is. We ended up getting fully drenched in the rain trying to figure that out. The management needs to get it together. They’re putting a bad light on the history and culture of this place .
M	Mike Krause Music on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Warning: advertised as being “open” but is not. Stopped by after 10am on Tuesday, Feb 8 (during hours it’s advertised as being open) and it was closed. No signage in any language on the entrance indicating such either. Other reviews indicate the same issue; should have read them before going. Would have been nice for them to tell people, especially after walking through a rainstorm to get there…
M	Matthew Ball on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful mansion turned museum! The Maya exhibit was excellent, there were so many unique artifacts from all over Mexico. The architecture alone is magnificent, truly a must see if you are in the area. My family and I were only able to see the first floor, so we are looking forward to going back and seeing the rest of the museum soon!
A	Alex Gage on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great museum. It has 2 exhibits: one about local anthropology and the other about the history and collection of local artifacts. Both fascinating. Nothing in English so bring your phone with Google Translate and use the lens feature. It was great
M	Mariam M on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Entrance fee is 65 mxp. The museum is not big, it's only a few pieces you can see there, but still very nice to get an idea about the history of the Mayan.
E	Erin Summerlin on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice museum, there’s not much information in English but my favorite part was the top floor to see embroidery art that’s very cool. The Mayan exhibit is decent, I just had a hard time understanding because there was not translation in English. I wish I knew how to read in Spanish!
