Thank you, @AjitThite Dada, for your appreciation. In fact, I was not aware of this museum when I visited Ganpati Pule, but my friend informed me that he had just noticed on a map that there was one museum nearby, so we decide to go there and discover this lovely location. I have always made an effort to learn more and explore these details with all of you amazing community.
