After reading the reviews here on Trip Advisor we made a detour specially to visit the museum. Unfortunately it is closed in Dec/Jan/Feb. The kind lady in the Trading Post explained that there is no heating so that's why they close it in winter. It looked really attractive from the outside with informative displays by the entrance.

This exhibit was very informative and designed really well to engage the visitor in Navajo culture. A video tells the creation story which is really interesting.

In 1 hour we learned a lot about the Navajo Nation. Learn about the WWII Code Breakers at the Trading post next door.

The museum is well laid out in one large room and tells the story of the Navaho Nation and their culture in a clear and straightforward way. The mock up of a Navaho Hogan (house) was particularly interesting.

This museum is well done and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I especially enjoyed the information about the Navajo Code Talkers who participated in WWII.

Learning about a vibrant culture such as that of the Dine' makes all your experiences more meaningful and memorable. Take some time for the Codetalker exhibit, its well worth it! Enjoy a nice iced coffee afterwards at the Hogan Espresso!
