Mexico City - The National Museum of Anthropology in photos

 


An absolutely fabulous museum with artefacts from different regions of Mexico and from different cultures. The most striking items include a towering Toltec sculpture, the massive stone sun calendar, and the Olmec colossal heads. You can also walk through the different exhibitions virtually, and see more artefacts on the museum`s digital collection: www.mna.inah.gob.mx
