A small museum which displays a wide variety of work, from indigenous to modern woven 'paintings' which were wonderful. Of course it would have been great to have had English interpretations, but these places have restricted budgets. They have concentrated on quality exhibits. A most enjoyable visit.

Not a stamp fanatic in any way, but this museum is really well curated and beautiful inside. Be sure to check out the carte room-- where you can pull various shelves of stamps--and original letters that Frida wrote to her doctors-- out to peruse. The museum has a great interior courtyard as well. Impressed and glad we stopped in (also: free entry!)
