May 4, 2010 | Jaipur city's dolls museum looks for more visitors | Jaipur: Despite the thirty-five years old dolls museum in Rajasthan's Jaipur city possessing around three hundred dolls from across the world, it witnesses only a few visitors. Ironically, the museum receives only a few visitors. Those
who do visit, admire the beauty of the dolls. "We got to see many dolls from different
countries, cultures and states, in this museum. We got to know about their traditional
wedding attires. This is a nice place and everybody should come here once," said
Vikas, a visitor The museum has dolls from India in one section and from different
parts of the world in the other. These include United States, Canada, Latin American
countries, Africa, Europe, and China. "Basically, this dolls museum is divided
in two parts. In the first part, we have dolls from different states of the country
and in the second part; we have dolls from different countries of the world. We
got these dolls from different embassies. The founder of this school made this
museum in the fond memory of his sister," said Avdhani, the owner of the museum.
Avdhani added that lack of interest among the travel guides and operators is a
major reason for its low popularity. The dolls represent the culture of these
countries. |
