Even though the second floor was closed for renovation this museum was still worth the cost of admission. It enriched my understanding. All information was duplicated in english.

Absolutely phenomenal museum if you’re interested in the history of some fascinating peoples. The museum presented the pieces in a brilliant taxonomy that helped to appreciate the sophistication and advancement of the peoples. The second floor remains closed at May 12, 2022, which is one-third of the museum

The misc artifacts being exposed are truly marvellous and breathtaking. But they are few and the museum exhibition does not provide a clear context. Its a small exhibition. The final feeling is that you are just taking a peak to a "history" that has been forgotten, willingly or not (the "" because, i guess, there is no written documentation to it)
