The museum has recently restored 400 year old haveli (house) that has 3 floors of well kept displays. This is a quiet place away from the hectic atmosphere of a city.
This museum has played an important role in reviving the local hand block printing industry and the products created by these artisans are sold in the Indian and international retail outlets.
