Top Museums in Santiago

I recommend getting there right when they open at 10 AM. It was way less crowded, and I could take my time with the exhibits without feeling rushed

Check the museum's calendar ahead of time. Sometimes they have special events or talks that can really enrich your visit. I stumbled upon a great one by luck.

Don’t forget to visit the museum shop! They have some unique books and souvenirs related to human rights that I didn’t see anywhere else.

Don't miss the fantastic botanical garden outside! I stumbled upon it by chance and it was a peaceful escape from the busy museum... Perfect for a quick break

I recommend taking a pic of the map when you enter. It helped me navigate the museum much easier instead of wandering around aimlessly like I did at first!

If you're planning to spend hours here, bring some snacks. The museum can get tiring, and I regretted not having something to munch on during my visit.

Definitely check out the dinosaur exhibit – it’s really cool! I suggest you take your time there; it’s more impressive than I thought. I almost skipped it and would’ve regretted it

I think it’s totally worth taking your time in the contemporary art section; it really stands out. I kind of rushed it and regretted not exploring more!

I suggest going on a Tuesday. It's usually less crowded and sometimes they have free entries or discounts so you might save some bucks!

My advice is to take your time in the first hall. I rushed through it thinking the next part would be better, but it turned out to be my fav section!

I recommend downloading an audio guide before you go. It really helped me understand the exhibits, plus it saved time because I didn't need to wait for a guided tour!
