This is probably the best museum I have visited in India. We visited during Christmas break and the place was full. There was a long line for tickets which took about 20 minutes. It is possible to buy tickets online which I recommend if you go during public holidays. The museum is pretty big and the collections are fantastic. I found the Asian collection and also the literature collection to be very impressive. There are other rare collections like a carpet collection which might interest some people. If you like art, don't miss this museum.
