If you're interested in history, gems or just looking for a different activity in Albuquerque, this museum is a must-see. With this ticket to the Turquoise Museum, you can explore on your own a unique and educational exhibit devoted entirely to one of the world's oldest and most prized gemstones: turquoise.

The museum is run by a family that has been researching, collecting and disseminating everything related to this gemstone for generations. Throughout the visit you will discover its historical uses in civilisations such as Egyptian, Chinese and Mesoamerican, as well as its importance to indigenous peoples of the American Southwest.

The exhibition ranges from mining and geology to traditional jewellery, with unique pieces and information panels explaining the different types of turquoise, its natural formation and how to distinguish genuine stones from imitations.

The tour is self-guided, so you can go at your own pace. In addition, the museum is housed in a restored neo-gothic castle, which adds a special value to the experience. Both the collection and the building make this visit very different from any conventional museum.

It is an ideal activity for all ages and perfect for those who enjoy craftsmanship, culture and curiosities not found in large museums.
