Museo Casa del Alabado
Pre-Columbian art is the focus of the Ecuadorian museum Museo Casa del Alabado, which is situated in Quito's old district. Since it prioritizes the aesthetics of the object over the historical topic of Ecuadorian archaeology, despite dealing with the social processes of pre-Hispanic Ecuador, the museum is not only dedicated to archaeology. It might be argued that the museological script draws inspiration from the idea of human divinization as a result of his interaction with the forces of nature, or apus.
The Museo Casa del Alabado, which is close to Plaza San Francisco's central square, showcases the pre-Columbian existence of native Americans. The rooms are divided up into digestible, tiny bites of related items for visitors. The museum features two rooms for the creation of educational activities, two patios, one café, and 14 permanent exhibition rooms. Additionally, there is a service and customer support department.
Visitors can learn about the interaction between communication, rituals, and nature by taking the tour at Museo Casa del Alabado. The connected things are embellished with images from the heavens, underworld, and middle earth, showing how they are all intertwined. You can get a quick snack, take a little break, and plan your next round of touring in the main courtyard. It is considered as one of the Best Places To Visit In Quito.
