Über diesen Tip

The Museo de Vestigios Arqueologicos Diego A. Huanitzin, known as MUVA, sits at the entrance of the Parque Ecologico Ehecatl and holds about 170 pieces from the Pleistocene to the colonial era. The star is a pre-Hispanic ballgame ring about 1.23 meters across that turned up in a local landfill. Entry and guided visits are free. The museum was closed for months and reopened in October 2025, and it opens only part of the week, so check its days before you go.
