Very exciting and interesting exposition and museum. Nice practical shop with jerbal products. We liked the place! You just need to use translator for some texts in Spanish.

Nice museum. The way there is also worth it e.g. little pigs in the market and food places for locals. Inside knowledge of Spanish is useful but you'll get some explanations in French, German, Italian.

Grass Roots effort to preserve culture and knowledge. Could be something more in the future. In 2018 it still has a ways to go as far as an informative museum.

The place is very unique and informative, especially for those interested in ancient healing practices. Please not that there are posts online that the museum was closed permanently but they are open again for the public. You can also support by buying herbal remedies made there.

Amazing community-led effort to spread understanding of traditional practices here. Learned so much and really enjoyed the video and the displays! Don’t miss this — it is absolutely worth the donation of 25 pesos, aka barely more than one US dollar. Consider buying some herbal remedies for things like headaches, fever, u0026 menstrual cramps, or a pamphlet to further support their efforts.

It's a strange place in my opinion. I think that much more info could be provided about the healing plants and maybe provide English captions in the rooms rather than a rather tired book. Unfortunately didn't work for me, though I appreciate their support of indigenous communities and their customs.

Been here before and it's great. But right now, Sunday afternoon it's closed
