Museo de Culturas Populares

This museum has a wonderfully varied collection of Mexico’s traditional arts and crafts, with some astounding ‘trees of life’ from Metepec, whimsical Day of the Dead figures and a fine display of charro (cowboy) gear. There are also mosaics, traditional rugs, a loft and a gift shop.
