The place has many historical collection of Kutch. It is also worth to see the structure of the museum which was constructed in Britishers time. It is sharing wall with the Alfred High School which also hundred plus years old structure built by britishers.

A cut above the average Indian museum. If you like textiles, its worth an hour or two, when in Bhuj.

The Kutch Museum is very good. It is small though; but the exibits are worth seeing. A little knowledge of history always comes handy when you visit a museum. Wish I could have spent more time there, but we were on a schedule.
