In my first part I have mentioned about Feguieredo Portuguese Mansion Museum cum Homestay. This part I am going to write about Goa Chitra Ethnographic Museum in Goa. This Museum is by Victor Hugo Gomes (one-man) collections of 40,000 items.
This Museum is divided into 3 parts. The collections include right from chariots, carts from various regions, cycles, office items, beer jars, musical instruments, hospital instruments, statues, cold press, utensils to storage items.
All items very very unique and we have to really appreciate the curator of this Museum and it is a feast for our eyes and mind to look and experience the antiques.
The above picture is cold press for beer making.
Many Unique products are beautifully exhibited and showcased here. Amazed to see the different categories of collections.
The very idea of visiting Goa is for partying. Apart from partying, there are many things to visit in Goa.
My review in Google Maps about Goa Chitra Ethnographic Museum.

Very nicely put together, @Gurukrishnapriya Ji. Your post beautifully highlights that Goa has so much more to offer beyond its popular party culture. It carries a meaningful message for youngsters to explore its rich heritage, natural beauty, local culture, and unique experiences. Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful perspective.

Hi Ma @Gurukrishnapriya, as someone who also loves museums, I am truly humbled by the incredible dedication behind the Goa Chitra Ethnographic Museum. To think the curator collected 40,000 items to preserve local heritage is deeply inspiring. You’ve beautifully shown that Goa has a rich history far beyond its beaches, and sharing these treasures is a wonderful contribution to Google Maps. Thanks for sharing!

Yes @NareshDarji I will surely join. Thanks for letting me know about it. You know my mother passed away. After a long break I started writing and just now visiting Connect. Hopefully I will write more posts. Will pick up slowly in some time.
Thanks @doc_dells and even I was thrilled to see the collections. Such an amazing effort for curating such Museums. For some small collections in our homes we find hard to maintain them. Felt happy that I could spend some quality time and explore the whole Museum. I will write more about my Goan travels.
