National Museum of Anthropology Tour

About This Experience

The National Museum of Anthropology is considered one of the best museums in the world and the most important in Mexico. It houses the largest collection of pre-Hispanic art and artifacts on the planet, including the legendary Aztec Sun Stone (often miscalled the 'Aztec calendar'), the jade funerary mask of Pakal the Great, the gigantic Olmec heads, and thousands of treasures from the Maya, Zapotec, Totonac, Toltec, and many more cultures. The building itself, designed by Pedro Ramírez Vázquez with its monumental concrete umbrella in the central courtyard, is an unparalleled architectural work. A must-visit to understand the deep, millennial soul of Mexico.
