Review:

Located inside a beautiful colonial-style building that dates back to the 1930s, the National Museum of Modern Art takes visitors on a journey through Guatemala's modern art scene. The exhibits are centered around the Quetzaltecan artist Carlos Mérida, who is widely recognized as the founder of the artistic movement in Guatemala.

The permanent displays cover everything from Romanticism to Cubism, and the museum often hosts fascinating temporary exhibits as well. The museum is open every day of the week between 9 am and 4 pm, but is closed for lunch during 12:30 pm and 2 pm on the weekends.
