La Esquina Popular Mexican Toy Museum is a cheerful antidote to the polished gallery circuit in San Miguel de Allende. Its rooms are filled with handmade dolls, masks, puppets, miniatures, wooden animals, and tin toys from across Mexico, showing how much wit and regional identity can be packed into small objects.
The museum works well because it is specific rather than grand. Come for an hour between church-and-plaza walks, especially if you are interested in folk art or travelling with children; the collection gives San Miguel a more playful, handmade texture than its colonial facades alone can provide.
