Museo Nacional de Antropología (National Museum of Anthropology) Guide

Mexico’s National Museum of Anthropology is one of the world’s great museums. Opened in 1964, the exhibition halls house Mexico’s greatest archaeological collection, celebrating the country’s pre-Columbian inhabitants and its existing indigenous peoples. As it is impossible to cover the whole museum at once, it is more rewarding to limit a visit to a few areas of particular interest. Some of the most fascinating rooms are the Mexica, which showcases Aztec culture, the Maya hall, and the Teotihuacán hall. The Sala de Orientación provides an overall view of the main Mexican cultures through an audiovisual presentation, and there are also rooms devoted to recent archaeological discoveries.
