This is annex to Trivandrum zoo. The museum houses rare collection of archaeological and historic artifacts, bronze idols, ancient ornaments, a temple chariot & small wooded boat-which my daughter liked a lot and off course-ivory carvings. Good one to be visited to understand old folk art of Tanjavur and Mughals.
