Lonely Planet review for Bahawalpur Museum

Displaying items ranging from calligraphy to artefacts from Moenjodaro, Cholistan and Harappa, Bahawalpur Museum, less than 1km southeast of Farid Gate.

The museum is divided into a Pakistan Movement Gallery of photos; an Islamic Arts Gallery of arms, textiles, graphic arts and metalware; an Archaeological Gallery; a Coins & Medals Gallery with items minted by the former state of Bahawalpur; an Ethnological Gallery with handicrafts from Cholistan and Bahawalpur; a Fabrics Gallery with costumes from the region; and a Manuscripts & Calligraphy Gallery.

    Situated in the center of city, Bahawalpur Museum is a must stop for all interested in General history, Pakistan's History & Bahawalpur's history. It contains a gallery of pictures of the Colonial India (of king's & Prince's) to the Independence movement & Pakistani leaders. Another gallery of the rulers of Bahawalpur's & their family. Then the traditional art & other things related to the region of Bahawalpur (the former state) & much more.

    It's near so it's worth a visit.
