Top Culture in San Miguel de Allende

My advice is to bring cash for smaller galleries and shops. Some places don't take cards, and you might miss out on amazing local art because you can't pay!

Plan to visit right when it opens at 9 AM. The morning light on the architecture is stunning, plus you’ll avoid the larger crowds that come later in the day.

If you're really into the art of these toys grab the audio guide for a few extra pesos. It adds so much context to the exhibitions and helps you appreciate the craftsmanship like I did.

I suggest checking the opening hours before you go. I found out they close for lunch between 1-2 PM, which cut my visit short. Planning around that can really help you enjoy more time there!

I think they have a small gift shop at the end with cool toys and souvenirs. My advice is to bring some extra cash; they don't take credit cards. You don't wanna miss out on those unique finds!

My advice is to ask about any special discounts – I saved a bit by showing my student ID. It never hurts to ask!

i recommend visiting the museum right when it opens at 10 am to avoid the crowds. i went around noon and it got super busy, making it hard to enjoy everything
