Lonely Planet review for Museu do Índio

Featuring multimedia exhibitions on Brazil’s northern tribes, the small Museu do Índio provides an excellent introduction to Brazil’s indigenous people. Next to native food and medicinal plants, the four life-size dwellings in the courtyard were built by four different tribes. The museum contains an archive of more than 14,000 objects, 50,000 photographs and 200 sound recordings.
