Me encantó! I loved it! I visited Guatemala City for the first time and wasn’t initially looking forward to it, but this experience changed my mind. It was a much-needed escape from the busy city. Even with the car sounds surrounding me, the beauty of the gardens and the bird songs made me forget I was in an urban environment, even if just for a little while. I saw several bird species, and the museum provided so much information (en español, of course! ).

The museum has a few galleries, including one with dioramas, gems and minerals, plants and mushrooms, mammals, reptiles, insects, and marine wildlife. I only wish they had a gift shop; wildlife guides and souvenirs would have been great🤩

The 10-quetzal entry fee is very affordable, and I think it could even be a little higher to help with updates to the museum. If you’re looking for a fancy shopping experience in Zona 10 Centro Comercial here, you're going to be disappointed, because this isn't it. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Sometimes, all you need is a little nature! Plus, it’s a lovely spot that provides a small sanctuary for wildlife in the city.
