These foundations have been there for hundreds and hundreds of years. It was good to see one re-constructed building to be able to picture what the buildings were like. Very interesting.

Very nice 3 floors of a top notch museum. We toured the outside a different day and the attention to detail is awesome. We highly recommend touring both the inside and outside.

The museum is a dimly lit version of most small museums in the states. It has a lot of information about the different culture found in Ecuador. Some of the exhibits are translated to English but most are not. The archeological park is a small display of the ruins of the indigeonous peoples and a garden illustrating how they practiced agriculture. The gardens are beautiful and fun to meander through. They also have a small collection of colorful birds of Ecuador and llamas on display.

This is a not to be missed museum and park. The restored archy digs are an interesting insight into the early cultures of this area. Too bad a lot of the museum wqs 'off limits' on our visit. No entry fee either and clean. Worth 2 or 3 hours

This was one of my favourite places in Cuenca. From the outside it's a pretty boring and ugly building, and doesn't get much better inside. However the ground floor exhibition dedicated to a modern Ecuadorian artist was really interesting with some really impressive pieces. The first floor was not so impressive with pretty naf reconstructions of Ecuadorian traditional homes, dress etc. but the shrunken head exhibition was really cool. The best part of the complex is the Inca ruins outside to the back of the museum. Once you walk out first it looks as if there are just a handful of low-lying stone walls, but the further you walk into the complex the more impressive the ruins get, we ended up spending quite a bit of time here, it's a really nice place to explore. Afterwards you can walk back along by the river into the city centre. It was also free which was a nice bonus and you can take photographs inside.

The museum depicts native lifestyles, festivities, arts and crafts and to our surprise we discovered that the Shuara tribe we had just visited the day before had been a tribe of head hunters. The museum clearly tells the story of their lifestyle. In addition to the indoor exhibits, the outdoor archeological site is interesting to see. The outdoor aviary is a great place to get up close to parrots and toucans. We sat and ate some ice cream in a very lovely setting. And all this is free of charge! If you have an hour or two to spare in Cuenca, by all means check it out.

The drive up from Cuenca is nice, the countryside is beautiful, but don't be fooled by anyone who tells you this is the poor mans Machu Picchu. It is a very small archaeological site on the side of a hill not far from suburb-like countryside dotted with houses. If you're not completely fascinated by the Ecuadorian people's history, then this walk among the rocks will probably bore you. Don't get me wrong, entry is cheap and it's a pleasant stroll, but don't expect anything that is going to really Wow you. I really didn't feel like it was worth taking up the better part of a day going there and back from Cuenca.

A very interesting Inca site with good tourist infrastructure (descriptions in Spanish and English). Features some constructions I haven't seen in popular Inca sites in Peru (e.g., the water channel with a small pond in the center). Also, the exotic bird collection is definitely worth a 15-min stop. Highly recommended!

As a gardener myself I was fascinated by the ancient methods utilized by these farmers. If you love plants in a very natural setting then this is the place to visit. I brought water and some food which allowed me to spend over 4 hours. You can't beat the price !!
