Paithruka kudaram

Hello everyone, yesterday i visited Paithruka kudaram an archaeological museum in Nedumangad, Thiruvananthapuram owned by a man who is having a craze in collecting old items.
He liked to share the stories of how he collected all these item’s and he is having many more big dreams of developing his museum.He had opened the museum for the public yesterday and all the collections where amazing.

Wow..! A museum set up by a single man out of passion. That is fabulous :+1:
I, too, remember a similar museum set up by a single person in Gurugram near Delhi.

Yes @Rahul001 most of the museums will not permit videography and photography but here the only one rule is to remove your footwear when you enter inside the museum.

Museums built by individuals with personal collections almost never allow photography. @Gouri.PS @Rahul001

The museum mentioned in my previous comment from Delhi was also very cautious over photographing.

After some interrogation, they revealed that competing researchers visit their places and take photographs to include in their work, like a thesis or a book, and claim them as their own.

These think books we often see in hotel lobbies or libraries sell for very high prices. As a result, they do not risk allowing anyone to take photographs.

Yes sir you are absolutely right :+1:

Not just with Individuals, most museums that are not under Archeological survey of India also don’t allow photography which can be seen in Kerala. @TusharSuradkar
