I am in Kolkata and just recently visited Indian Museum. I liked it so much because the Indian history and everything is inside are incredible.

The status are so old but preserve very well. And it tells how talented the people were at that time.

Lovely statues!

What a museum. I personally visited couple of times. Very very attractive collections. Just a representation of the Indian art , glory , multiple philosophy that originated in this country form various eras from ancient time. But very few people visit there when they come to Kolkata. But if you are here then Indian museum should be in your priority. It should be a must to visit place to know several things from prehistoric time.

Oh that`s wonderful! Love your content!
