Museo Nacional del Cacao participates in Comic Con Ecuador
The Comic Con Ecuador event in Guayaquil featured a significant presence from the Museo Nacional del Cacao, which utilized a dedicated stand to educate attendees on the history of cacao.
Visitors, many dressed as characters from films and video games, engaged with the museum's exhibit regarding the ‘pepa de oro’ (golden seed). Local attendees noted the importance of using such entertainment platforms to teach younger generations about Guayaquil's cultural identity and the history of fine aroma cacao.
The museum is located in the Casa Patrimonial Guzmán Aspiazu and offers free admission from Tuesday to Sunday. The event also served as a platform to promote Guayaquil's updated tourism offerings to the public.
