Museo Coronel houses pre-Hispanic Mexican artifacts, masks and other ancient pieces alongside African artworks, modern paintings and the rock stars of the last century - Miro, Kandinsky, Picasso and the preceding century, Goya- to name a few. If you're an art fiend this is well worth the stop even if you only have 20 minutes to roam the hallways. Visit! Visit! Visit! Visited November 2014

A lot of information is available in English especially if it's text. The museum has a beautiful and outstanding photo archive facilitated by the Colettes from the 70s. Seeing these made me feel very nostalgic because time is going by so fast and Huichol homeland is drastically modernizing. The museum is also trying virtual reality which when combined with Huichol turns to be pleasantly psychedelic. The museum gift shop has a good range of Huichol art handmade and digital.

They were forced to work in the mine under harsh conditions, with some estimates suggesting up to five people died daily from accidents, tuberculosis, or silicosis It was originally called "Mina San Eligio" but became know as "Mina del Eden" due to the massive amount of minerals found. The large quantities of silver and gold from El Edén flooded the European market, leading to the closure of numerous mines in Europe and the loss of many jobs. It was also a signficant source of wealth for Mexico Today, the mine is open for tourism and very inexpensive for a visit. The guides are very well educated about the history and it brings light to the horrific working conditions that the miners endured while working there. Even though the water below looks clear, it is polluted with mineral extracts and the chemicals. Highly unlikely you would survive from the fall, you wouldn't survive being in the water. Make sure to stop by and see Roche! He's waiting for you to say hello. The Mina El Eden is an amazing viist and highly recommended.

Very few "gory" art and news articles. You get to see how the people view death, statues related to death, artwork from a well-known artist, and ancient artifacts. A lot of history and culture throughout the museum. A lot of skulls and photos ok from the Day of Dead Festival celebration. Admission is inexpensive. There is one part I want to get up close on, but they closed that floor due to maintenance. I was able to only take the picture from the ground. Very different to see and also interesting facts and meanings behind each art.

The museum of José Guadalupe Posada should not be missed if you are visiting Aguascalientes. For…read morethose who don't know, José Guadalupe Posada was a Mexican political printmaker who used relief printing to produce popular illustrations. His work has influenced numerous Latin American artists and cartoonists because of its satirical acuteness and social engagement. He used skulls, calaveras, and bones to show political and cultural critiques. There is a lot of history in the museum, with several displays that seem to hold original newspapers from the Mexican Revolution. The museum is small but packed with a lot of prints. A couple of notes. Cash is only accepted to get in, and they do charge an additional 30 pesos if you take pictures. I highly recommend doing a frottage over some replica prints to take home a picture or two. The printing press in the back of the museum is super cool and is from the United States. There is also one inside as well. All in all, I recommend Museo Jose Guadalupe Posada as a step back in time during the building of Mexico's Republic

You can thank Jose Guadalupe Posada for the iconic calaveras that grace all things Day of the Dead…read more Since Day of the Dead was cancelled in L.A. we flew to Aguascalientes, where my maternal lineage can trace back to the time they arrived from another continent. Jose Guadalupe Posada born in Aguascalientes, created the Calavera Garbancera that would later grace The Alameda Mural by Diego Rivera. Rivera added the body and named her La Catrina. Posada stands alongside her in the mural. Frida and Diego were both fans. The museum has rotating exhibits in one gallery. A sculpture courtyard, gallery of Posada originals and a workshop where you see how Posada created his art. The gift shop stocks hard to find mescal too...at least when my Tío dropped in at the end of our private tour is what he requested. They were out.

About a million people. The new parts look like Southern California But I gravitate to the old part with its cafes, fountains, bands and colonial buildings. 30 miles away in the mountains is cavillo the guava capital of the world. It's not the most beautiful city in the country but I feel I'm in the true Mexico here and love the "good people" of the city
