Fodor's Review:

The Amazon Museum houses an impressive collection of artifacts and utilitarian items from different Amazonian cultures, including cooking pots, bowls, jewelry, hunting implements, stuffed animals, and shrunken heads. The bookstore, on the first floor, has a superb collection of (mostly Spanish-language) volumes on Latin American culture and indigenous peoples.
