Villahermosa Travel Guide

 DSwede Says:  The Elevated Museum, given the name since it is elevated above Paseo Tabasco which passes underneath it, is a rather small but free museum. The structure is protected from the elements, but is still an open air display, giving a bit of shade and cool breeze on the hot... 

 RAZOR-REN Says:  WELL, IT'S A PARK! HAHABUT FROM THE IMPRESSION I GOT, THE STAFF SEEM TO LOOK AFTER THIS WELL MAKING IT A NICE PARK YOU CAN CHILL IN.THERE IS A TOWER ON ONE END OF THE PARK IN WHICH YOU CAN GO UP FOR A STUNNING VIEW OF VILLAHERMOSA. 

 RAZOR-REN Says:  LOCATED NEAR TOMAS GARRIDO PARK. AN OUTDOOR MUSEUM COVERED BY TREES WHICH ALSO HAS A ZOO INSIDE WITH SOME ANIMALS TO SEE. A SERIES OF TRAILS WILL TAKE YOU AROUND THE SITE TO DIFFERENT OLMEC HEADS AND SOME ANIMAL ENCLOSURES.VERY WORTH THE VISIT. 

 atufft Says:  Villa Hermosa's old downtown area has a cobblestone mall of sorts where numerous hotels and restaurants are located. This is probably the best place to find lodging for the night, given it's access to the river front. We arrived at night, booked a room, and then walked along... 

 atufft Says:  Of course, many of the larger Olmec heads were carted off to the Mexico City Museum, and another exellent collection is at the anthropological museum in Xalapa, Veracruz. Some cities, like Tijuana have reproductions of Olmec heads as a reminder that Mexico had the New... 

 elgarbo Says:  Probably the only thing worth seeing in Villahermosa, and not overly spectacular anyway.This place is a large park divided into two sections; a zoo showcasing wildlife local to the area and an archaeological jungle trek. The highlight of the zoo section is probably the...

 DSwede Says:  Having been a while since we had eaten decent Italian, we decided to try Colosso which was recommended to us.The main chef is an Italian and the food shows it. The menu is only available in Spanish, but some of the staff speak a bit of English if you so need it. There is no... 

 sammyboy312 Says:  You must check this place on Sundays. It's pricey about 19 US dollars. Go for the native dishes. 

 Laumas Says:  I have been stationed in Villahermosa for almost a year now, and several of us from my company have been going to this restaurant once or twice a week. The reason is that it has the best steaks we have tasted here, at the most reasonable prices. This is an Argentinian... 

 Laumas Says:  Be careful when driving for the first time in Villahermosa. The drivers here are really impatient and daring, and every drive is a harrowing experience. It's typical for people to make a left turn from the right lane, create new driving lanes when none exist, and no one... 

 Laumas Says:  Currently there is a lot of drug trafficing problems in the area. The police have been ambushed several times and many execution style murders happening weekly. I always feel safe walking in Villahermosa, the people are friendly and there doesn't seem to be much violent...
