    Curious and especial!
    I loved this museum, when I arrived I didn't wait for anything but the place and the content surprised me, the decoration is beautiful, attractive for everyone, it's funny for the children, all environment has a sparkle of magic. It's small but a great place to know.

    Seems kind of like a tourist trap...
    Went there with my son, he was very interested in it, but honestly for me it was not that nice. The concept is interesting, as well as the research that some woman made regarding different types of magical creatures. However the whole museum is filled with mostly European styled statues and figures of gnomes and other magical creatures, even as the guides clearly say that local ones are supposed to look different. I was expecting a more thorough explanation about different types of creatures from local and international folk tales, especially because I'm familiar with many Mexican tales about some of the creatures mentioned there. I think it's possible for small kids to enjoy it, but older kids and adults might want to skip this place and better enjoy the other interesting attractions in the area.
