Why go

It displays a complete cross-section of the culture and history of the region with a fine collection of Buddhist art from the Gandhara Period, Islamic artifacts, calligraphy, old manuscripts, arms, costumes and jewelry. John Kipling, father of the writer Rudyard Kipling, was curator in the 19th century and the museum appears in the first chapter of Kim. Unfortunately the presentation is old-fashioned and basic, and captions are sometimes in Urdu only.
