    The Museo de las Artes Populares de Jalisco, located in Guadalajara, Mexico, offers visitors an insightful look into the rich folk art traditions of Jalisco state. The museum is housed in a beautiful 19th-century building, which adds to its charm and historical context.

    Visitors appreciate the diverse collection of traditional crafts, including ceramics, textiles, and woodwork, which showcase the region's cultural heritage.
