Museum of the Mummies







We visit one of the more bizarre attractions of the trip today, a museum full of mummified bodies from Guanajuato's cemetary. Some strange combination of soil & climate has meant that the bodies of those buried there have been very well preserved & those that don't have relatives willing to keep up the graveyard maintainance fees are exhumed & displayed for the public.
