Great place to experience a piece of history
Large collection of artefacts and Raja Ravi Varma paintings. Maintenance of building structure can be a tad better.

Don't vist
Never visiting again. Phones are also not allowed, there not much to see. Fees are high compared to my experience. Place is not good for small children, because of nude images on wall.
