Top Museums in New Mexico

Definitely get your tickets online before you go—trust me, the lines can be long, and I've seen it save a good chunk of time. Also, look for promo codes; sometimes they pop up randomly!

Bring your camera, but also be prepared to put it down and enjoy the moment. You'll want to capture everything, but some experiences are best lived rather than filmed!

I found out the hard way not to wear anything too fancy. You'll be climbing and crawling around a lot. Comfy shoes and clothes are a must!

Take your time exploring! I ended up feeling rushed because I tried to see it all in one go. I suggest planning for at least 2-3 hours to really enjoy it.

my advice is to grab a map of the museum before you start. it helped me navigate through the galleries without missing any of the gems.

I suggest visiting right when they open at 10 AM. The crowds are smaller and you can really soak in the art without distractions.

My advice is to check out the gift shop after your visit. They’ve got some unique handmade items that are good quality but often overlooked by the busy crowd! Just beware of impulse buys – it’s easy to want everything!

I recommend going on a weekday if you can. The crowds are way lighter, and you can really appreciate the exhibits without feeling rushed. Plus, you might get that sweet parking spot right by the entrance.
