A unique model of the city under a glass floor fronts a full glass wall looking out on the Sun Pyramid, providing a truly unusual viewer experience. The museum compound includes rest rooms, a beverage station and an excellent gift shop and book store, as well as a small Sculpture Park. My only complaint is that the lighting in the museum is too dim.
