Suggestions for Museum near Mexico City

Eduardo N. • July 2, 2016If in Mexico City do not miss this spectacular museum. Just visiting the building is worth it, but they also have the best collection of Mexican Art.

Ricardo V. • September 22, 2013The Maya and Azteca rooms are the best ones, however the entire museum is really a must, very well organized and unique collections

Margarita K. • September 11, 2014Must see! A beautiful building with Art Deco style inside. Check out the theater as well as the museums on the 2nd & 3rd floor. Murals by Diego, Siquerios.

Kandu T. • November 13, 2018An excellent museum that is always offering new exhibitions of modern art. In addition, it has a very cozy restaurant that offers good food and coffee, with a very good view of the Chapultepec forest.

Carl W. J. • August 23, 2018Great museum and the staff in the café are great. The museum store staff close the store early to go home ,,,,,,,, so do your shopping 15 mins before the museum closes . So beware .

Damon S. • February 1, 2019Excellent art museum with interesting rotating galleries and very unique architecture

Damon S. • August 14, 2018Very interesting and well curated visit. Most of the artifacts seem to come from a museum in Los Angeles and the amount of English is less than expected. Free entry and worth a visit!

Adrian C. • August 24, 2014Great place to get a general idea of the variety of cultures and art crafts you can find in Mexico. Its worth the 2 hours visit. The shop is great to get authentic souvenirs. Not cheap though.
