A Bit of a Climb

It's a bit of a climb from the city center to find this small museum, but it is well laid out and English options are available as everything is presented in Spanish. Staff is friendly and the gift shop is nice.

    Nice small museum
    The museum is well done and helps to promote Bolivian weaving art. We received a brief but interesting introduction to the museum, but felt a little bit hurried through because they close for lunch time - they should have told us before we bought the tickets. The woman weaving at the shop got very angry when I took pictures; considering the entrance price and the fact that at the she is a kind of public figure, I didn't like this attitude.

    Small, informative museum
    This museum is really small-- maybe about 5 rooms, but they do a good job of explaining the clothes worn by the different groups in the area. Since I had just come back from Tarabucco, it was interesting seeing an explanation of the clothing and crafts I had seen there. I literally read everything in the museum in about 25 minutes though. It costs 10Bs to get in and additional money if you want to take photos. They also have a woman sitting in one of the first rooms doing some of the traditional weaving which was really interesting to see. I cannot imagine the attention to detail these artisans have!
