    The museum of José Guadalupe Posada should not be missed if you are visiting Aguascalientes. For…read morethose who don't know, José Guadalupe Posada was a Mexican political printmaker who used relief printing to produce popular illustrations. His work has influenced numerous Latin American artists and cartoonists because of its satirical acuteness and social engagement. He used skulls, calaveras, and bones to show political and cultural critiques. There is a lot of history in the museum, with several displays that seem to hold original newspapers from the Mexican Revolution. The museum is small but packed with a lot of prints. A couple of notes. Cash is only accepted to get in, and they do charge an additional 30 pesos if you take pictures. I highly recommend doing a frottage over some replica prints to take home a picture or two. The printing press in the back of the museum is super cool and is from the United States. There is also one inside as well. All in all, I recommend Museo Jose Guadalupe Posada as a step back in time during the building of Mexico's Republic

    A major art museum in Guadalajara, this is a must see. But don't get too excited. Although a world…read moreheritage site, this is not an awe-inspiring museum unless you're a fan of 1930s modernist murals. The main gallery is interesting and reveals a key part of Mexico's history and politics through art. The museum includes several lesser exhibits ranging from modern artists of Mexico to a history of the building. On Tuesdays the museum is free. Time budget: unless you're studying this period of art, budget about an hour for the museum. Misc: (1) If you have a purse or backpack, you will be asked to check it. (2) Normal price for entry is $80 pesos. (3) Restrooms are available without charge in the museum.

    4 stars if you go on Tuesday when it is free. 3 stars if you go any other day and have to pay 80…read morepesos for entry. No bags are allowed inside this museum. Be prepared to check any bag you have no matter what size. I had small cross body bag and was told I needed to check it in. Bag check is free. This is a beautiful building with interesting artwork on the walls and ceilings. Some of the artwork has QR code for you to watch a video in Spanish or English that explains some of the artwork in the main hall. These were informative. Walk around and enjoy some of the smaller art galleries. Some are only in Spanish. Budget no more than 2 hours unless you want to watch every video and read every piece of artwork throughout the facility. Bathrooms: free and clean onsite If you need a snack, head to La Chispita for a great beef and chorizo taco.
