Don Bosco Museum of Indigenous Cultures
The very professional Don Bosco Museum of Indigenous Cultures displays a truly vast, very well laid-out collection of tribal artefacts interspersed just occasionally with gratuitous galleries on Christian missionary work. The hexagonal museum building is an impressive, symbolic tower, seven storeys high for the seven states of the north-east. Tours (compulsory) last over an hour, departing on the half-hour. For an extra Rs. 50, a video explains the Nongkrem festival or you could choose from various film alternatives.

Osho Meditation Resort
- Pune, India
- Activities › Other
You’ll either like it or hate it. A splurge of an institution, this ashram, located in a leafy, upscale northern suburb, has been drawing thousands of sanyasins (seekers), many of them Westerners, ever since the death of Osho in 1990. With its placid swimming pool, sauna, ‘zennis’ and basketball courts, massage and beauty parlour, bookshop and a boutique guest house, it is, to some, the ultimate place to indulge in some stress-busting meditation and rediscover one’s lost spiritual self. Alternately, there are many who point fingers at the ashram’s blatant commercialisation, calling it nothing short of a clever business ploy, marketing a warped version of the mystic East…

Mosques
Bhopal’s third female ruler, Shah Jahan Begum, wanted to create the largest mosque in the world, so in 1877 set about building Taj-ul-Masjid. It was still incomplete at her death in 1901, after funds had been diverted to other projects, and construction did not resume until 1971. It is now one of the largest mosques in India, thanks to its huge courtyard. The main structure is enormous too; fortresslike terracotta walls surround three gleaming white onion domes and a pair of towering pink minarets with white domes. If you can make the dawn azan (Muslim call to prayer), you won’t regret it. And while you’re in the area, don’t forget to pop over the road to see Dhai…

Massage
Many budget hotels offer cheap ayurvedic massage treatments of varying levels of authenticity. Top-end hotels offer more luxurious versions. For the real deal, though, head to Ayur Arogyam. The lovely Keralan couple who run this small place from their home also have two simple doubles rooms to rent (₹100).
Barbers in Gole Market offer simple but rejuvenating head massages for ₹20.
