Off-the-Beaten-Path Museum: The Maya Museum 🏛️🔍
Missed out on Cancún’s Maya pyramid day trip? No worries—I found a Maya Museum on Google Maps 🗺️🔎. Thought it’d be a decent substitute, but… spoiler alert 🚨—it de-mystified Maya culture for me. Google Rating: 4.5/5 🌟 (For restaurants, 4.5 is chef’s kiss , but for museums? 🤔) How We Got There: Took an ADO bus from Playa del Carmen , then Ubered the rest (entrance fee: 95 MXN; transport: 600+ MXN 💸). First Impressions: Pottery, jars, figurines… “Wow, these are ancient!” 🏺👀. Zoom In: Dated 600–800 AD 📜 (Tang Dynasty era in China —I know terracotta even if I don’t know history ). Fun Discovery: Checked the guestbook—no Chinese signatures yet 🇨🇳✍️. So I left a mark (P6) 💪. Rant: Want to reply to all 5-star Google reviewers: “Check out China’s provincial museums… or even Google them!” . Bonus: Zero tourists 👥, no AC , no gift shop . Verdict: Maya civilization? De-mystified 🧙. But…: Maybe I just didn’t “get it” . Open to Tips: If you’ve cracked the code, let me know! 🗝️ #MexicoTravel #CancúnAdventures #MayaCivilization #MuseumRealness
