Museo de Cera de Guanajuato
Museum · Centro · Trasgallo 82, frente a la Alhóndiga de Granaditas, Guanajuato
A small wax museum near the Alhóndiga, useful as a quick family-friendly stop when walking the lower center.
Visitor note: Treat it as a focused cultural stop rather than a box to check. Most museums in Guanajuato work best when paired by area, so choose one nearby cafe or plaza afterward and avoid stacking too many indoor visits in a single afternoon. Because it is in Centro, walking is usually easier than driving. Pair it with nearby plazas, keep a map pin for your hotel, and remember that the quickest route may involve stairs or a tunnel entrance.
Hours: Daily 10:30-18:00
