This museum was an unexpected highlight of our visit to Varanasi. It’s collections are outstanding, and beautifully displayed with excellent lighting for sculpture and a spacious arrangement of materials on view. Overall, an exceptional experience and highly recommended to get an overview of Indian art, especially sculpture, painting (miniatures/album paintings and book illustrations), textiles, and don’t miss the treasury (strong room)!
