Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya

The famous Prince of Wales Museum is located in Mumbai, India, very British style, very typical European architecture, this is the cultural wealth left by the British colonial period, it is lingering.

[Location] Not far from the Indian Gate, not accessible. [Tickets] Foreigners 650 rupees, including explanation, no Chinese, English, press the number, compare a map, you can also find the number on the exhibit, listen to the explanation. Mobile phones, cameras, and cameras have to pay an additional 100 rupees for shooting, but it is really not strict, even in the museum, the flash is almost blind to me... [Environmental layout] It is said to be the largest museum in India, hmmm, okay. But the layout is better than the National Museum in Delhi, Easy to find. There are a total of three floors, basically around the center, the main exhibition room is there. The wing is basically not very important. The hall looks up and you can see the Indian-Mughal-style buildings. Basically, most of the castle palaces seen in India are like this. If you like to see portraits and fine paintings, you can enjoy it. I especially like the Krsna exhibition hall. The exhibition is fine painting, but the words are so poetic and beautiful.

The Prince of Wales Museum of West India was founded in 1909 and officially opened in 1921 in Mumbai, India. The museum, named after the Prince of Wales (later George V), is one of the largest museums in India and designed by British architects.

Very recommended, for friends who like art, historical and cultural heritage, this is a treasure, the inside and outside are amazing!

The Mumbai Prince of Wales Museum, built between 1904 and 1914, is one of the largest museums in India. It was named after the then Prince of Wales who laid the foundation in India in 1905 and officially opened in 1921. The collections in the museum are very precious works of art and relics of various periods and so on. There are also some valuable sculptures and large collections.

The Prince of Wales Museum, one of the largest museums in India, has a 16th century Muslim architectural style. Its main structure consists of three domes, with basalt as the building material. It is magnificent and magnificent. Situated in a beautiful garden, the museum contains classical Indian works of art and sculptures of various periods.

After visiting India Gate, we walked to the Prince of Wales Museum on our way. The main structure of the museum is a three-storey dome building, which is also rich in 16th century Muslim architectural style. The museum, named after the Prince of Wales (later George V), was designed by British architects. The main part of the museum is made of basalt, which is very magnificent. Purchase tickets of 400 rupees for each foreign visitor at the ticket office, then 200 rupees for the camera to be photographed, then walk through the garden and enter the museum through security checks. Travel in India is also a feature of buying tickets for cameras that need to be used at scenic spots. After buying a ticket for the camera, the camera holder will be given a color band sticker so that he can take any photos after wearing it. The Prince of Wales Museum in Mumbai, the Indian Museum in Calcutta and the National Museum in New Delhi are three major museums in India. Tickets for the Prince of Wales Museum now include voice guides, because there are only English, French, Japanese and no Mandarin, so we don't want them either. Instead, a museum guide map is needed, which makes it easy to find the key cultural relics in each exhibition hall, because these key cultural relics are the exhibits with the guide number. In this museum, besides exhibiting unearthed cultural relics of different historical periods in the same period as other museums, there are also exhibitions of foreign cultural relics. In the European oil painting exhibition hall, large-scale western oil painting has added new artistic elements to this ancient oriental country. In the museum, there are also special exhibitions of Japanese and Chinese cultural relics and arts. Through these cultural relics, we can also see the cultural exchanges between ancient India and other countries in the world in the past vicissitudes of history. In addition to the exhibition halls of classical works of art and sculptures of various periods in India, the museum also has fixed or temporary exhibitions of Indian coins, ethnic costumes, thematic photographs and so on, covering a large area. Because of the time, we can only skim through these things in a hurry. There are many visitors here. In addition to foreign tourists, there are more Indians, and many pupils, led by their teachers, also come to visit the museum.

The service is very good, with professional guidance, a sense of security 🈶️
