    MODO - Museo del Objeto del Objeto in Mexico City offers a distinctive experience, focusing on everyday objects and their cultural significance. Visitors often appreciate the museum's creative approach to showcasing mundane items in thought-provoking ways. The exhibits are generally well-curated, presenting a mix of permanent and rotating displays that explore various themes through objects.

    Many reviewers highlight the museum's ability to spark nostalgia and encourage reflection on consumer culture and design evolution. The building itself, a renovated art nouveau house, adds charm to the experience. The gift shop receives positive mentions for its selection of unique items.
