Through costumes, musical instruments, weapons, religious utensils and daily utensils and other cultural relics, the culture, art, religion and way of life of various ethnic groups in Mexico are described in detail. The museum building itself is a model of modern Mexican architecture, and the huge umbrella-shaped stone pillar fountain in the central hall is the finishing touch, which has also appeared on many postcards of Mexico City. In addition, the museum also contains relevant introductions to anthropological overviews, prehistoric times, and primitive immigration to the American continent.
