Museum of Bolivian Andean Textiles

This museum is open, just a bit hard to find! Here is a photo of the entrance, you just need to ring the bell. We emailed them ahead of time to be sure and they responded quickly. Great museum if you are interested in textiles! It’s very well prepared and presented (mostly in Spanish however). Definitely worth a visit if you’re interested in the influence of textiles on the Bolivian and Andean culture.

Really lovely and small museum showcasing typical textiles from the different regions of Bolivia. The layout is really clear and pleasant to explore and the collection very well curated. The staff is really friendly and helpful. If you're a textile enthusiast then make sure not to miss out whilst visiting La Paz.

MUTAB is a phenomenal collection of textiles and regional costume from across Bolivia. Beautiful varied displays with excellent contextual information in Spanish and English. Some really stunning examples of weaving. The best comprehensive collection that I've seen in one location. Also a great shop with truly locally sourced gifts. Easy to find, just a short walk from the Busch cable car stop.

Worth the visit even if it is a little off the beaten path. You can take now the Teleférico white line to the Monumento Bush station and make it an adventure!

Best museum experience I've ever had. Loved the textile art and information about their cultural significance. Incredibly high-quality wares in the gift shop. Or at least there were when I went 16 years ago - I bought my dad a wallet, and he's still using it today!

Lots of great info and examples of regional weaving styles and patterns and a small gift shop. Well worth the 15bs entry fee for a self guided tour. You can fly through the exhibit or take as much time as you want. Photos are allowed.

Musuem closed for ‘cleaning & maintenance of building’. Says they will reopen soon but doesn’t give a date.

If you are in La Paz, the museum is a must. The original clothing, history and explanation behind each weaving is clear and educational. A big window into the Andean cultures through their weavings and costumes. I recommend it
