India's own Wax Museum

Sorry, for being away for so long- I was down with a bout of seasonal flu :( Hope it was a great diwali for all of you- I was unable to do any diwali posts thanks to the flu. But, I'm going to go drool over the diwali pics of my fave bloggers right after this post :)

London, Paris and New York might have their Madame Tussauds, but we have our own 'Siddhagiri Gramjivan Wax Museum'! I was pleasantly surprised to discover its existence. It is located in Kaneri; near Kolhapur, Maharashtra. The museum showcases scenes of village life, and take a look at it yourself to see what a fantastic job they've done!

 

Definite drool over that basket of bangles

Don't you agree that its a fantastic job? Do visit the Museum's website for images and if in India- directions to get there.
