Rating:

Intinan Museum is an educational center of culture and even promotion of the nation since 1960.

The founder of this museum is Humberto Viera. This place marks the middle of the world at latitude zero and there is also a full sized replication of a burial tomb. There is the wonderful trophy from the local Indian tribe which is also worth seeing.

The equator is the main attraction here, with some experiments shown to the visitors. How the water runs down the plug hole clockwise and anti clockwise, on which hemisphere and so on are all explained here.
