Mar 5, 2018 · Mexico City is bursting at the seams with fascinating museums, both grand and far-reaching and intimate and focused.
- Museo Nacional de Antropología (MNA) Museums. Miguel Hidalgo. It’s impossible to see the entire museum in one day, but coming back and seeing the Coatlicue with adult eyes will change your perception of one of Mexico’s most important museums.
- Museo Frida Kahlo. Casa Azul. Museums. History. Del Carmen. The selling point of this museum – the most visited in all of Mexico City - is that it was the house where Frida Kahlo was born, lived her life and died.
- MUAC, Museo Universitario de Arte Contemporáneo. Museums. Ciudad Universitaria. This is one of the most functional and beautiful museums in Mexico City. Inaugurated in November 2008 and with an impressive design by Teodoro González de León, this is a multimodal space that also allows for the exhibition of retrospective work, which is a space of installations designed specifically for this building.
- Munal. Museo Nacional de Arte. Museums. Art and design. Cuauhtémoc. The building is the old Palace of the Secretary of Communications and Public Works, designed by Italian architect Silvio Contri, who began its construction in 1904.

Most of Mexico’s most famous and most important museums are unsurprisingly located in Mexico’s incredible capital city, Mexico City (CDMX). This is one of my most favourite cities in the entire world and one of the the reasons I love it so much is the seemingly never-ending supply of museums to visit. I’ve been to at least 30 of them already and am...
The state of Guanajuato in central Mexico is home to not only Guanajuato City but also the extremely popular city of San Miguel de Allende. Two of my favourite Mexican small cities are also in Guanajuato: Mineral de Pozos and Dolores Hidalgo, both essentially open air museums.
Guanajuato, the capital city of the state of Jalisco is home to numerous museums, many of them truly excellent. Other cities, such as Tequila, the home of the famous Mexican liquor also has a number of wonderful museums to explore.
Quintana Roo might not strike you as a super cultural place to visit but prepare to be surprised. Not only can you visit the wonderful Maya ruins such as Chichén Itzá, Coba and Tulum while staying in Quintana Roo but also fabulous museums and even, down in Bacalar, a museum with in fort (it was here that I first realised that the British were pirat...
Museo Nacional de la Muerte, Aguascalientes
by Emily from luxurybackpack.com Aguascalientes is a really vibrant city in central Mexico with a very cool and quirky vibe. I was not surprised therefore to find that its most popular museum to visit is the National Museum of Death. You can’t really get more quintessentially Mexican than a museum dedicated to the dead. The first few rooms explore death in art, the news, history, and religion. Throughout the rest of the small museum, more of Mexico’s colourful representation of death prevails...
Museo Nacional de la Mascara
by Emily Museo Nacional de la Máscara: the most surprisingly impressive museum I visited on my travels in central Mexico. With over 1000 masks on display in the stunning former mansion, the museum takes you through the history of Mexico’s dance and ritual heritage. The display is very well executed with just the right amount of accompanying information to make it educational but still fun to look around. I would definitely recommend this museum as a must visit when in central Mexico!
Robert Brady Museum, Cuernavaca
by Julianna from lettersfromatravelinggirl The Robert Brady Museum, located in the centre of Cuernavaca, opened its doors to visitors in the 90s and has since fascinated minds with the travel and satires of Robert Brady. This English artist lived in this house for 25 years and used it mainly to entertain famous people of that time. The house tells the story of his travels with artefacts from all over the world covering every inch of the house. Visiting it can give one a feel for what it must...
While the museums in Yucatán aren’t, in my honest opinion, among the very best in Mexico, they are interesting and do offer a great look at the rich and vibrant history of the region. And, of course, there are more ruins in Yucatán than practically anywhere else in Mexico. ➡️ Museums in Mérida ➡️ Ruins in Yucatán
