👍👍 It is a comfortable place with a rich history about the south of Veracruz, mainly focusing on the Olmec culture, which colonized from Tuxtlas to some neighboring states in the south of the state, here one learns and can appreciate the different figures carved in stones. which are part of the culture...

    It is a place with good pieces from the region. The thing is that it is very neglected, the boy at the entrance was attentive, but not very interested in the subject. It is too neglected, there are pieces that have been knocked off their bases and no one has been able to put them together. The display cases are already rusty and pitted, the climates are dripping on some display cases. And it lacks maintenance in general. I hope that the corresponding authorities take this into account and know how to exploit the potential of the place.

    It is a comfortable place with a rich history about the south of Veracruz, mainly focusing on the Olmec culture, which colonized from Tuxtlas to some neighboring states in the south of the state, here one learns and can appreciate the different figures carved in stones. which are part of the culture and that allow us to understand the culture in more detail, children can be brought here and they can also learn, they even give workshops and summer courses during vacation time.

    Must visit place in Coatzacoalcos. Beautiful place to take photos.

  • 2/5 Isaí Vidal S. 5 years ago on Google • 14 reviews
    It is a very beautiful sculpture. As for the rest, in my opinion, lack of cleanliness, attraction, information, signs such as schedules or someone to guide or promote knowledge and encourage people to enter. There is not much variety, only street vendors and the beach is too dirty, unattractive, I hope your government improves those tourist areas.

    (Translated by Google) Good place to go to visit with the family. In addition to quebré it offers an excellent view of the sea. It is on the boardwalk so it is super easy to reach. (Original) Buen lugar para ir a visitar con la familia. Además de quebré ofrece una excelente vista al mar. Queda sobre el malecón así que es súper fácil de llegar.
