The Monte Alban Museum

At the entrance to the Monte Alban archaeological site is a small museum housing several of the carved blocks from the Building of the Dancers as well as a number of other interesting clay and stone pieces and artifacts  unearthed from the area.

Outside the museum are also several stands in which vendors offer the visitors replicas of clay statuettes and colorful crafts memorabilia.
