Lokayatan Folk Museum

TIME : 2016/2/17 13:05:58

This museum, 3km west of the river in Bhudarpura, displays an impressive range of Gujarati folk arts, including wood carvings, metalwork and some wonderful embroidered textiles and amazing tie-dyed quilts. Included in the ticket is the Kalpana Mangaldas Museum , with festival masks from around India and, just to round things off, an elephant skeleton. It’s all set in the peaceful, peacock-dotted grounds of the Shreyas Foundation. Photos are not allowed.

An autorickshaw from the centre costs around ₹40; say you want to go to Shreyas Foundation.
