I’m very fond of museums and galleries, so I’ll give this place a high rating. Me and my friends managed to visit during one of the XU days, and thankfully since we were students we could visit for free as long as you list down basic info such as your name. I do hear that there is an entrance fee if you’re not a student, though. It might have altered my opinions a bit if I had to go through the paying process.
I think the sheer amount of information packed in exhibit you can take in and read about is pretty good! I especially loved the art gallery.

Wow, what an amazing place to learn about the peoples of Mindanao. There are two halls that discuss this subject. The first goes through the history of Mindanao with an emphasis on the Spain's and America's arrival and the revolt with local folk heroes. The second hall is devoted to the anthropology of Mindanao. It is fascinating to see how the different tribes made a living and dressed. Definitely worth spending time for anyone who is fascinated by the rich history and culture of Mindanao. NOTE: Museo de Oro is located on Xavier University and can only be accessed by the main gate of Xavier University and no flash photography.

This is the second oldest museum in all of Mindanao. I'm hugely surprised at how vast their collection is. While the section on the history of the Philippines is quite limited, the best, must-see feature of the gallery are the exhibits on the indigenous peoples of Mindanao, and their visual art displays are a testament to the wealth and creativity of artists in the region. The overload of beauty and artistry just gives you so much pride as a Mindanaoan.
