    (Translated by Google) I really liked the museum, the information and pieces that are in it are very good. You go through it in an hour and a half minimum. What surprised me most is that there are few people who visit museums. The day I went there were only 4 people in the whole museum. What I did not like is that the museum shop is super poor, there is nothing relevant. And there are no guides. (Original) Me gustó mucho el museo, la información y piezas que hay en el son muy buenas. Lo recorres en una hora y media mínimo. Lo que más me sorprendió es que hay poca gente que visita los museos. El día que fui solo habían 4 personas en todo el museo. Lo que no me gustó es que la tienda del museo es súper pobre, no hay nada relevante. Y faltan guías.

    Another excellent regional museum with a collection mostly from La Venta. Unfortunately the interpretive signs are not bilingual and there are no audio guides. This museum also has on display a codice, a rarity for mesoamerican museums.

    Entry was free today; normally 28 pesos. 10 staff working, but we were the only visitors. Lots of prehispanic artifacts, including the Mayan calendar predicting 2012 to be the end of the world!

    Great museum about the Mayas in Tabasco. Entrance fee was 24 pesos and well worth the hour I’ve spent here. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the air-con works great! If you’re on a walk through town, it’s a great place to cool down while informing you about the history of the Mayas and watch many very interesting artefacts. Apparently, there are other expositions as well since they were preparing a painting exhibition, but at the time of my visit that part of the museum was closed to visitors, unfortunately.

    Go there if you want to know more about the mesoamerican peoples who made Tabasco their home. More information could have been shown not only in Spanish but also in English. Bonus: contemporary art exhibitions.

  • 5/5 Allan Josué García M. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) That museum is amazing. From the entrance to the last room the work dedicated to its design is much appreciated. The entire collection is about the Mayan culture. I recommend going with time because, although it is not big, you have a lot to see and appreciate. There are a couple of rooms with videos. Outside it, there are good places to eat although, as in all Villahermosa, they close them early (~ 16: 00 h). (Original) Ese museo es increíble. Desde la la entrada hasta la última sala se aprecia mucho el trabajo dedicado en su diseño. Toda la colección es sobre la cultura maya. Recomiendo ir con tiempo pues, aunque no es grande, tienes mucho que ver y poder apreciar. Hay un par de salas con vídeos. Fuera de él, hay buenos lugares para comer aunque, como en todo Villahermosa, los cierran temprano (~16:00 h).

    (Translated by Google) Hello, come back to laziness, as we say in Mexico. I already had time without traveling. And as soon as I left. I arrived at the museum of regional anthropology of Tabasco CARLOS PELLICER. I will recommend some good, comfortable, cheap and beautiful hotels in Villahermosa. Of those that serve well to travel the world without spending much. So you can go to know this museum. It is top notch. Naturally exposed pieces, vessels, monoliths, true story told by each of those pieces. People who have not visited the museums are lost in the magic that all these archeological pieces transmit. Just seeing them and knowing their age transports you hundreds or thousands of years ago. It is a sensation and an impressive atmosphere. Remodeled, well organized, and in a beautiful area of ​​the city, do not overlook the museum. You'll be surprised. (Original) Holaaaaaa, ya regrese a la vagancia ,como decimos en México. Ya tenía tiempo sin viajar. Y tan pronto salí. Llegué al museo de antropología regional de Tabasco CARLOS PELLICER . Voy a recomendar después unos buenos hoteles, cómodos, económicos y bonitos de Villahermosa. De esos que sirven bien para viajar por el mundo sin gastar mucho. Para que puedan ir a conocer este museo. Está de primer nivel. Piezas expuestas al natural, vasijas, monolitos, verdadera historia contada por cada una de esas piezas. las personas que no han visitado los museos, se pierden de la magia que transmiten todas estas piezas arqueológicas. Solo verlas y conocer su antigüedad te transporta cientos o miles de años atrás. Es una sensación y una atmósfera impresionante. Remodelado, bien organizado, y en una zona bonita de la cuidad, no pases por alto visitar el museo. Te sorprenderás.
