Museum in
Small, recently modernised museum on the north edge of Managua. The museum has a variety of prehistoric displays, but the main feature are the displays of 6000 year old human footprints found on the shores of Lake Managua.
The museum is open from 8am to 5pm Monday to Friday, and from 9am to 4pm on Saurday and Sunday. The lat-long reference is for the city centre, not the museum.
