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!

Beatriz G. • May 13, 2022Excelente exposición, museografía e iluminación. La conservación del edificio y la terraza de lo mejor y la atención del personal del museo extraordinaria.
