A few Inca finds and story boards spread over 3 floors. Only one preserved child mummy on display at a time in special dimly lit tank. Rather sad really- should have left them buried on the mountain.You will be in and out in 30 minutes.

The museum centres on high altitude archeology, and inparticular the perfectly preserved remains of child sacrifices from the Inca reign. Very, very interesting. I would have awarded 5 stars if all of the information boards had had English translations..
