The museum is elegant, the items are good quality, but the lack of descriptions is disappointing
The museum is housed in the former Ajmer Palace that was once used by Mughal emperors whenever they stayed in Ajmer. There a good quality collection of items, all displayed in themed rooms. Each room ..
