Best places: Archaeological museums in Mexico

🫤 Postpone your trip if you can. Everything inside, such as tombs or inner courts, is closed off right now. These are the most interesting and important bits, with the most beautiful motifs and all the murals. Now you can only admire from the outside. An unnecessary choice in my opinion, as they could...

Toltec archeological site including a pyramid & basalt columns carved in the shape of warriors.

Archaeological site featuring Maya ruins, plus a museum & visitors center with gifts for sale.

Museum displaying Mayan artifacts from the city of Palenque, highlighting daily life & religion.

Imposing complex of prehistoric pyramids believed to have been used for fertility & rain ceremonies.

👍 Sin pagar un solo peso puedes disfrutar de la exposición de un mamut, algo extraordinario. No se lo pierdan. Además hay otros museos que puedes visitar. El Centro Cultural es un lugar muy agradable para venir y disfrutar, es muy tranquilo.

👍👍 Great experience and lots of info related to Ciudad Juarez. I don't know if it's free entrance but was included in the Turibus tour that starts close to the American Consul.

👍 Free museum, long waiting time and large lines to enter, the guided tour is fast, in a maximum of 20 minutes the contingent's turn ends. Wear comfortable shoes because it is very likely that you will be standing for a long time before entering, also take patience because the place has become famou...

👍👍 Excellent place, quite touristic and historical. Teachers and students get in free, so bring your credentials.

👍👍 This is how sites should be preserved in Mex. The gov stepped in, took over the land and fixed paths and constructed a museum to tell the story. The place has a parking area. You pay a fee to access the pyramids and there is a path that will take you counter clockwise around the pyramids there are r...

👍👍 Visite la zona en domingo, es pequeño el Museo pero es bonito, el guía explicó bien.

👍👍 The most well preserved and perhaps the most impressive building at the Mitla Archeological Zone. This residential building located on a latform is accessible by a wide stairway and it sports sich titanic columns, each carved out of single piece of rock. The mosaic resigns that adorn the structure a...

👍👍 Church had great detail and was very old.

👍👍 Wonderful place not far from Mexico City. Perfectly cared for. It is a Mexica vestige. The site museum has excellent pieces, as well as the garden. Clean bathrooms, amazing attention. You can go up to the temple with the necessary care, above there are two braziers and a sacrificial stone. Belo...

👍👍 Beautiful, easy for kids and adults. Free entries for locals

👍 Me comentan que hasta marzo del año 2023 posiblemente haya acceso al museo que tenían pero que se encuentra en mantenimiento, los días domingos no hay costo y su horario es de 9 a 16:00 hrs, buen lugar para hacer una caminata al cerro y distraerse con las maravillas de los antepasados.

👍👍 Me encantó el lugar. Definitivamente lleven repelente para los mosquitos. Muy tranquilo el ambiente. Fue una experiencia hermosa Very good place to visit. It's very calm here. They let you just walk around everywhere. I just liked the fact that this place is sort of in the middle of nowhere and all...

👍👍 Very picturesque and pretty town! With very friendly people!

👍👍 Este museo es súper cool, es pequeño pero tiene buena información sobre esta población, hay objetos antiguos de diferentes civilizaciones, murales, infografías e información sobre la arqueóloga que descubrió muchas cosas sobre Cuicuilco, lo mejor es que es gratis y es fácil llegar, frente a la esta...

👍👍 These are 2 sites (not next to each other as suggested by Google Maps, but perhaps 2-3 minutes on foot) that could be seen from the outside. At the moment, the offices are working but they are not permitting entry into the museum or the gated areas. However, the only difference is that it's more dif...
