We are thrilled visiting this beautiful museum.
Don't leave the village without first paying a visit to it. You will love it.

I can admit however that I had a quarrel with the lady in charge because she wanted us to move on to the rest of the rooms so fast, that I could not hear what the guide was saying. I had to take pictures and the whole group was moving from one room to the other as if somebody was chasing them. I was the only one who kept complaining, ......I would have left if not for the photos and the things found in the museum which were so interesting indeed.
