Superb experience, after completing the temples of khajuraho if someone has time in spare they should go to the adivart tribal museum, it is a nice showcase of tribal life, tribal houses are built very authentic and wooden work.

This is a beautiful compelling and innovative museum about tribal arts in Madyar Pradesh state. Recently renovated and upgraded with new exhibits, it is very near the Khajuraho Western Temples (walkable). It has installation and crafts art, painting, and other exhibits depicting tribal life. Don’t miss the fabric tree in the big building, breathtaking.

We were there on Dec. 29 and unfortunately the museum is still closed. There were many workers there getting it ready to open (Khajuraho is one of the host cities for the G20 Summit in February 2023, and so there is a lot being done in town to be prepared to welcome world leaders, and I believe they intend to have this museum ready and open by then). Someone let us walk around the grounds for a few minutes, and we could see that this place will be wonderful when completed and re-opened. I am sorry we didn't get to see it in its glory. We walked there from our hotel 1.5 km away; it is just a few meters away from the west temple complex.

I was there on a Monday and unfortunately the museum was closed. Luckily I saw a gardener and requested him to open the gate to the garden. They allowed me inside , I was even able to see the collection inside the museum, which is beautifully arranged. Was able to pickup some authentic souvenirs from the shop too. Overall was delighted by the helpfulness of the staff. Kudos to them!!

A small but nice museum of local tribal art. The tree of Life is the one I immensely enjoyed. Located in the city. Go for it.

The Tribal Art of Khajuraho is located in the Chandela Cultural Complex. Unfortunately we took a long while in finding the place and thus couldn't spend much time within. The arrow markers from the Western Group of Temples to the Museum took us haywire. But we finally did reach it. The place has an inconspicuous entrance which adds to the problem. The place is a must visit for those who are interested in tribal art and culture. The has over 500 tribal antiques like folk paintings, masks and terracotta objects. We could barely spend much time here as we were to run to catch our train. Will positively make a more detailed visit the next time.

Very nice place with lots of things related to central India's tribal culture. Here you can see different kind of things used by Indian tribal like pots, cage, paintings, tools.

This is located close to western group of temples in Khajuraho. However the entrance of the museum not properly done. The display inside the halls consisting of paintings and metallic art work depicting past tribal culture and life is worth a visit. However relatively it is a small museum.
