Wonderful museum with a great display of regional costumes and history of clothing in Colombia. Only takes about 30 to 45 minutes. Located in a very old building in Candelaria that would an attraction all by itself.

I'd walked past this small museum in La Candelaria many times and finally decided to check it out. The ground floor has an outstanding mochila collection (traditional handwoven bags you see everywhere in Colombia) showing the craftsmanship of different mochilas from different regions over time, as well as traditional regional dress from different parts of the country. My eyesight isn't terrific so my only reservation is that the lighting is lower than ideal to see everything. To the rear the ground floor opens into a beautiful, exposed textile art gallery and 2nd floor textile and ceramics museum that is outstanding and easy to absorb in a relatively small amount of time. All well worth a visit.…
