Located at Dar-ul-Shifa, on the southern bank of Musi River in the Twin City is one of the best museums in south India.
It has a wide collection of exhibits which you don’t generally find in other museums. The entrance fee is nominal.
The largest one-man collection in the world. Many artefacts are unique, nowhere in the world can be found such pieces. Should not miss is the Clock when hourly bell rings, a white marble statue with a veil, and many more such awestruck art pieces.
It is in the congested part of the city and you might need to plan for reaching there accordingly.
There are enough things to look around and it could easily take 2 hours if not more to look around the place.
People who love to know about history should visit this place… More importantly, do take a guide inside who will help in the proper understanding of the chronology of events and connect all dots. Without a guide, it’s just a general look at antiques but with a guide, we get to know the whole background behind that antique.
Different types of arms(defence) have been put to display. From the jewellery to clothes and cutlery and even their clothes have been preserved and put to display. How Salar Jung and his generations achieved has been all put to display.
This iconic place is one of the jewels of Hyderabad. Its importance in retaining the history and culture of India is priceless.
A tour of this museum takes you back in the bygone era.
A “no miss” spot for history buffs and ones who cherish peaceful and meaningful sightseeing.
