Situated in the city of Cuenca, Ecuador, the Museo Pumapungo is a must-see for travelers who want to experience the culture and history of Ecuador. This expansive museum complex sprawls across over four hectares of land and includes a variety of interesting elements. The museum building itself features a world class collection of art, artifacts, sculptures, and displays that illustrate the diversity of cultures from around Ecuador. But perhaps the most notable feature is its collection of shrunken heads from the Shuar people, a journey betwen death and life. Outside of the museum, visitors can explore Incan foundations, an archaeological and ethnobotanical park, and a bird rescue center where they might see parrots, macaws, and eagles among other birds. With something for everyone, Museo Pumapungo provides a truly unique experience that won't easily be forgotten!
