I thought that the reviews were exaggerating so we only went there with 1.5 hours time. Turns out that the reviews were a total understatement: As a teacher I have to say, every Museum needs to be like this one!!! So much interaction, exploring, listening, seeing, doing (yes, you even get to dance/learn steps interactively!). It’s amazing what has been set up here in Merida and this museum deserves a lot more recognition! It is a must when you’re in town. As I mother of a 19 months toddler, I especially appreciated the kids room where my daughter got to try out and play all kinds of instruments! We both had a blast today and I’m thinking about returning during our last couple of days in town; that’s how much we liked it. Downsides are the limited opening hours (we arrived on a Monday to learn that the museum is closed on Mondays and tuesdays), the missing toilet seats in the restrooms and the hygiene (huge cockroach at the sinks 😖).

I usually go here to see the Yucatan Symphony Orchestra. After a fire damaged their regular home about 2 years ago they've been playing here and honestly it has been for the better. It's a more modern hall with good acoustics, better viewing and much more comfortable seating than the previous hall. I've also seen excellent shows here of international musicians during Meridafest which takes place every year in January. The hall holds around 500 people so it's quite intimate. The staff there are also very helpful. I would recommend to anyone visiting Merida to see some shows here.

Fantastic venue for a concert. Aisha Corona (violin) and Daniela Liebman (piano) gave a wonderful encores, including one together. The symphonic orchestra rendered Mozart's Piano Concerto no. 17 masterfully. And with Ms. Corona's lead on Vivaldi's Four Seasons, the audience was left mesmerized. I must mention Irina Decheva's piano for the Vivaldi. Sheer brilliance.

An extraordinary place to learn about various aspects of Mexican music across history, geography, genres, and names, highly recommended. Great interactive displays. Although it was difficult to concentrate on listening while the music and narratives are coming from multiple sources in the same room. For newcomers, a map of the floor would be helpful.

Contiene la historia de la música desde la época prehispánica hasta el día de hoy, mayormente las exposiciones se centra en la música mexicana a través tiempo. Es realmente interactivo, hay pantallas y audífonos en todo el recorrido. Hay una sala dedicada a la música yucateca y otra para el maestro Armando Manzanero, detalles significativos. La entrada tiene costo de 200 pero nacionales pagan 100. Estacionar es complicado porque el museo está en zona centro, hay que pagar un estacionamiento público si llegas en carro propio. La experiencia en el museo vale la pena, te lleva al menos unas 2 horas si le dedicas tiempo a ver todas las secciones del museo. Cierra a las 2pm. Hay baños en el museo. Permiten tomar fotos y video y hay mucha seguridad, todos son amables. Fui entre semana cerca de las 12pm y había poca gente. Recomiendo la experiencia

Hasta que se me hizo conocerlo. Y de verdad, está INCREIBLE. Si te gusta la historia, la música y disfrutas de los museos, te va a encantar. Nos faltó tiempo! Entramos como 2:10 y un chavo del personal nos dió un breve recorrido y explicación de cada sala (él se ofreció y aceptamos) y el museo cierra a las 4, así que corrimos al final para terminar. He de volver más temprano para tomarme tranquilamente mi tiempo. Considero que es una joya que tenemos los yucatecos ya que está bien pensada y diseñada (no es que sepa mucho de eso). Cada sala, video, audio, está súper. Te sumerges en un mundo increíble y te hace recordar tantas cosas de las que, con suerte, viviste y que fueron parte de tu vida. Muy, muy, muy RECOMENDADO.
