Khazana Mahal showcases more than 2000 pieces of real and rare gemstones and jewellery across 50+ different types and categories."Each of these, be it a historical artefact, rare gem, ancient statue, mesmerising painting or an exquisite piece of jewellery, comes with a story and history that defines the character of each unique piece. These range from myths, historical facts and even their use and importance in Bollywood.The museum gives visitors an opportunity to dress up like a real Queen or King with its royalty replica dresses.We have tied up with travel agents and shall soon tie up with Rajasthan Tourism too, says Shrivastav adding, "As the collection is exquisite, expensive and unique, we shall allow only 21 people to visit the museum at a time.""The entry fee for Indian tourists is Rs 500 while Rs 1500 shall be charged from foreign tourists," he said.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
