What Makes It Special?

It is a vibrant tribute to the creativity of Mexico’s peoples. It brings together textiles, alebrijes, ceramics, masks, toys, and one-of-a-kind pieces from every corner of the country.

Did You Know…?

Every year, it organizes the famous Parade of Giant Alebrijes on Paseo de la Reforma, where artisans from across the country display giant figures made using traditional papier-mâché techniques.

Don’t Miss

Visit the museum shop: it’s one of the best places to buy high-quality handicrafts directly from local communities. And be sure to head up to the terrace—there are some hidden treasures there, too.
