    I like how organisations or individuals have taken up sections of the museum and maintained it. Good place to spend a few hours.
    There's a section of taxidermy animals and skeleton of a blue whale.

    Located between the main gate to the administrative office and the BEST bus stand this museum opens between 2-6 pm, Monday-Friday. Sometimes it opens at 2.30 pm . The entrance fee is Rs.200 but it includes a guided tour of this UNESCO listed architectural beauty. You are allowed to take pictures. The tour generally starts at 3pm . So if you come early spend time at this museum and then go on guided tour

    For art lovers it is a nice place.The museum has four sections. Two galleries on the ground floor and two on top. First one spot the portrait of Pilaji Jadhavrao, the brave Maratha. In the other spot, there are oil lamps and jewellery which were used to adorn domestic animals in ancient period.There is a huge collection of cooking vessel and lanterns placed at the front yard. The left gallery features a collection of ancient board games such as Ludo, and decorative storage boxes made of brass, copper, iron and wood. It also display variety of dhotis, turbans and walking sticks.
    On the first floor of the gallery we can see bullock carts and a doli used by king and queen .

    Time well spent… you can definitely spend 1-2 hours going through the in depth knowledge shared and displayed over there.
    The kids are mesmerized by actually seeing the coins and relating it with the knowledge they received through school books. For younger kids it may be too much information but for sure the place will again pull them back to pick up from where they had left.
