Displaying some important finds from southern Petén sites, this small museum is the main draw of Dolores, a town 25km north of Poptún along the CA13. The collection features pottery, arrowheads and stelae dating from throughout the history of Classic Maya civilization. Combined with nearby ±õ³æ³¦Ãº²Ô, it's a fun day trip out of Flores, especially with the convenience of a rental car. Without one, only die-hard Maya relic fans will find it worth the trip.
