      Basically a museum built around an ancient burial site. It is small but quite interesting. Worth the small admission fee.

      They have built a one-room 'museum' around an ancient burial site, leaving most of it intact. Around the walls are display cases with the various objects and trinkets found in the graves. This part is quite interesting. Then there are a few hutches built on what is presumably traditional lines. They contain figures and objects to portray what life must have been like centuries ago.We gave the traditional Indian dances a miss, having heard them banging away to 'we are the chanpions' when we arrived at the museum.Lunch at the restaurant was quite good, pleasant atmosphere & friendly staff.

      We found this Cuban attraction very informative. The area around the attraction was a great glimpse into rural Cuba. There is also a Taino Cultural Centre just down the road.

      We had met a group of Indian dancers who were performing at our hotel Sol Rio Luna y Mares. They were extremely entertaining and obviously enjoyed what they were doing. Amazing dancing by beautiful people!They suggested we visit the Indian village so we did. We did not visit the burial part.We thought the grounds picturesque with replica huts and artefacts and the view over Guardalavaca was amazingBut the fertility rite was the wow factor along with dancing with the Indians. Strictly come prancing!

      An interesting place to visit to see the burial customs of the indigenous population of Cuba before the Spanish invasion.Nice arrangement of the findings.

      We went to the museum on an excursion and paid 5cuc to go into this fascinating place. The Cubans aren't like other museum curators so our guide told us about this site. Really interesting facts about the discovery of 108 bodies of which 56 are still at the site encased in white plaster of some sort. Most were discovered with artifacts such as pottery pieces, coins, statues etc.We spent about 1 hr roaming around looking at the items displayed. Men, Woman and Children's skeletons are located here. They have pictures on the walls of the original dig, If you are every in Holguin I recommend a side trip to this museum.

      The Cubans have really tried hard here - from the unearthed graves of skeletons and artefacts across the road to the mock up of the ancient village which once stood on the site. The 'come to life' show was a hoot but held a serious side which was explained to us by a helpful guide. Great views down to the ocean and fabulous views of the distant hills and countryside.

      Visited this village a few weeks ago. It is very interesting if not a little bit cheesey.My only complaint would be that the Indians are at you all the time to buy something from them. I purchased a trinket being told it was specifically made by them. Only to discover hundreds of them available in the market.Also although I was going to provide them with a donation at the end of the tour, i feel they spoilt the culture of their place by asking each person for a tip.I felt all they were interested was in getting money and nothing else.

      I love to learn the history of an area- this was an archelogical display of about 30 skeletons. We had hired a taxi so were not a part of the tour. A gentleman spoke with us, and we were given a handout in English. We found it interesting. The reconstructed village of the period the natives were living when Columbus arrived was interesting. The re-enactment of a fertility rite was also lively- especially since I was the woman from the group who was "rited". We went on the recommendation of friends and are not sorry we went, but it is definely a "tourist trap"... so expect it! The taxi driver took us to a farmhouse nearby- again, you get what is expected, including hen manure! We went to the Market in Guardalavaca twice- just make sure to negotiate.
