Latest Check-Ins
The road leading to it is closed but you can access the museum anyway. 4k pesos pp and it's absolutely worth it. We spent 1h30 in there, admiring this architectural masterpiece. The shop is not that expensive and you can buy there a lot of things.
Report Check-InVery beautiful museum, not touristic. Entrance was 4000 pesos/person. Many interesting informations on the region history.
Also a nice shop with some cheap art items.
Great stop on this road. Remember to ask them to open the halls with the tapesery art works and painting. The outside art and the the art qwas our highlights.
Report Check-InQuiet place at night. Asked in the museum, they permtted to stay over night.
Report Check-InReally interesting place,interpreting the ancient believes by graceful architecture and sculptures. Very inspired and very productive artist! Well worth a visit! 2.000 pesos per person
Report Check-InCalling this a museum can be a bit misleading. Don't come here for the 4 exhibit rooms because they are very simple and basic and not the highlight. What we really liked was the artistry and architecture of the grounds, unique and beautiful. Yes, you can see some of it from the outside but not all. The shop inside has a wide selection of items for sale. Still 200 pesos per person.
Report Check-InWell, if you like pebbledash gone wild.... Not much in the way of actual exhibits: you can get the idea just looking through the fence and save your 200. Shop may be worth a browse.
Report Check-InMore an artist gallery (eclectic mix of artist liberal reproduction of ancient objets, paintings, tapestry, the architecture of the place itself) from one artist (Cruz, the founder of the museum).
Includes a guided tour with historical/anthropological nice explanations (without being exceptional).
Had a good time but not a highlight for me.
I am surprised that this museum isn't better known. It is bursting with the creativity if its creator. Absolutely incredible!! One of the highlights in 2 years of travelling. Don't miss it on any account.
