Well Worth a Visit
Amazing museum with a phenomenal collection of pre-Colombian jade artefacts. All clearly labelled in Spanish and English. Lots of context given, and interesting comparisons with contemporary jewellery and sculpture in Europe and Asia. The background music was also very atmospheric, and suited the displays well.

Worth a Visit
It is best if you either really like Jade or the history thereof. Lots of floors and rooms to explore but there is a lot of similarity. I did not find it overly stimulating but there is a very nice gift shop.
