Museo de Astronomia Prehispanica

The Museo de Astronomia Prehispanica is a unique cultural destination located near the archaeological site of Cañada de la Virgen. The museum focuses on the astronomical knowledge of pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures, particularly their understanding of the moon and sun. Visitors can explore photographic exhibits detailing the alignment of the Cañada de la Virgen pyramid with celestial events, and learn from resident archaeologists and astronomers like Dr. Rosanna Quiroz. A key feature of a visit is the opportunity to enjoy a traditional, locally-sourced Mexican meal prepared with pre-Hispanic techniques, often accompanied by a presentation on the museum's research.
