purkhauti muktangan

If you have only few hours to spare in your busy routine and need a quick trip through the art and culture of Chhattisgarh, then you must visit this place. Established by the state government, this place is truly a worthy gift to the people of Chhattisgarh.

Not only to learn about the history, art and culture of the state, people also flock here to spend some time remembering about their good old days, when their city used to be completely different as it seems now. The entire campus is divided into various sections show-casing the heritage of Chhattisgarh. Starting from the right corner is the model of the typical tribal village, then comes a section showing various dance forms of Chhattisgarh. Next in the line is the small garden showing the kinds of jewellery worn by the tribal women of the state, neighbouring to which is the field having the replicas of all the ancient monuments of the state. Adjoining to this is the area showing the types of huts and house utensils used by the tribal people. In the way there are many more small and big sculptures to appreciate and learn about.

Things to take back home- Inside the campus is a shop that sells authentic Bastar art sculptures. This artwork has gained international fame. You may purchase some to preserve it for lifetime.
