Four stars for the displays. Well laid out and well thought out. Definitely worth the time and energy to visit. English wasn’t very common so I decided to make up my own stories. This was fun. ?

The exhibition of the Terracotta Soldiers was good and cool to see, it had some interesting other pieces and most display written information and descriptions were available in English. The QR codes with audio details, had no option for English translation however. The main museum displays about the history of Alicante, had one line of English per display, with a paragraph of description in Spanish and all the little tags naming the display items had no translations so just be aware of that if your Spanish is limited - or be ready to use your smart phone for camera/live translations, which sort of worked but made moving around the displays very slow. We arrived at after 12 noon, and tours in all languages had sold out, and we had to wait until 2pm before our ticket would allow us in. Time slots meant it wasn't crazy busy but the tour groups made areas very busy if you happen to enter a section the same time as them!

This museum never disappoints. What an incredible experience today as the Terracotta Warriors exhibition draws to an end. The staff were helpful and couldn’t have been more friendly. A striking and memorable day.

Absolutely loved the museum! There is so much to see. We booked to see the terracotta warriors, and that was fabulous. I wasn't really expecting much because of the price to go in, but I was really impressed. The exhibition exceeded my expectations, wasn't crowded, and had lots of information to read. The rest of the museum is free and well worth a visit in its own right. We loved it.

I never in my wildest dreams, imagined I ever would be able to see the Terracotta Warriors! However today, we visited the MARQ Museum in Alicante. An amazing experience and exhibition. Not to be missed. Very emotional. Very busy. A wonderful place to go.
