के बारे में
त्वरित तथ्य: Over 3,000 handcrafted artifacts from 23 different ethnic groups of the Amazon basin are displayed here. Many of the masks and ceremonial objects come from rituals that are still practiced today.
मुख्य आकर्षण: A shaman from the Shipibo community regularly performs authentic healing ceremonies in the museum, where ancient songs and the scent of ayahuasca fill the room. Visitors are allowed to view his personal ceremonial objects made of jaguar teeth and feathers up close.
अंदरूनी सुझाव
- Ask for the guide Juan; he himself belongs to the Bora ethnic group and knows the stories behind each exhibit firsthand.
- The photography permit is included in the admission price, but avoid using flash on the ceremonial feather masks.
- Plan your visit on a rainy day; it is much quieter and you can study the details of the poison dart bottles in peace.
- Skip the cafe in the museum and treat yourself to a fresh fruit juice at the nearby Belen market after your visit.
