Located within the Dzibilchaltún archaeological zone about 90 minutes from Cancún, this well-curated museum presents Maya artifacts, stelae, and colonial-era objects recovered from the site. The highlight is the famous Temple of the Seven Dolls and the cenote on the grounds. Plan a full morning since the outdoor ruins and the museum together take 2–3 hours. The drive is straightforward but you'll need a car or organized tour.
