👍👍 Maravilloso lugar. El creador es un altruista incansable. Se recomienda llevar suplementos de curación como: gasas, guantes de látex y otros consumibles; ya que atienden a muchos quemados y diabéticos locales de las comunidades. Igual se puede hacer un donativo en el lugar. Es muy importante ayudar... People often mention Sergio,

    The most impressive part of the trip, Don Sergio has dedicated the majority of his life to help the indigenous people in many capacities, as a dermatologist healing wounds (looks like diabetes is an issue among them bue to the excessive consumption of Coca-Cola), building wells and teaching the locals about health care. He acquired the items in the museum over the years.

    one goes here to meet and talk with sergio castro, a true hero for so many. sergio has been the savior of so many burn victims in san cristobal and communities around this colonial city. he gives selfishly of his time, money and energy to help those who would be left to be scarred from their wounds a true saint for so many. the re is also an excellent collection of traditional clothing, but alas in a sad state of preservation.

Igual se puede hacer un donativo en el lugar. Es muy importante ayudar ya que es la única fuente de ingresos.

    Sergio was the nicest man in the world. He helped me in a pinch as an American traveler and didn't even charge me. He's the medicine man and so is his assistant. Thank you Sergio

    Fantastic! Dr Castro has an amazing display of Chiapas village costumes, and an excellent slide show of local Festival days. More than that, his commitment to helping burn victims and other sick people in the villages surrounding San Cristobal is phenomenal. Go! Don't miss it!

    (Translated by Google) Exceptional museum that Sergio Castro has created for many years by going to care for people in their community. In thanks they gave him their typical and extremely rare holiday clothes in thanks for the care that Sergio gave them. (Original) Musée exceptionnel que Sergio Castro a créé depuis de nombreuses années en allant soigner les gens dans leur communauté. En remerciements ils lui donnèrent leurs vêtements de fêtes typiques et rarissimes en remerciements des soins que Sergio leurs donnaient.
