What to do and see in Punjab, India: The Best Museums
The Punjab (/pʌnˈdʒɑːb/ ( listen), /-ˈdʒæb/, /ˈpʌndʒɑːb/, /-dʒæb/), also spelled Panjab (land of "five rivers"; Punjabi: پنجاب (Shahmukhi); ਪੰਜਾਬ (Gurumukhi)), is a geographical and cultural region in the northern part of the Indian subcontinent, comprising areas of eastern Pakistan and northern India. Not being a political unit, the boundaries of the region are ill-defined and focus on historical accounts.

A must visit place to know the culture and religion of punjab and it's people. The 3d effects, lighting, ambiance of the place is mind blowing. It is beautifully made. The building structure is also very nice. The only drawback is maintainance, we the people of this country should learn to behave and maintain the museums and other historical places well so that we feel proud in presenting them at international level as well.

10. The Partition Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 428 reviews
The world's first Partition Museum is now open at the historic Town Hall building in Amritsar. The Partition of India was one of the most defining events in the nation's history. It was perhaps the largest migration in human history, with some 18 million affected. The Museum is part of the newly inaugurated Heritage Street at Amritsar, which starts at the Golden Temple and ends at the Town Hall.

Everyone who is visiting Amritsar, I recommend this place to you. This place gives us insights that are unknown to many minds. When I saw the pictures depicting dead people lying in the streets of Bengal, I couldn't take it. It shows that in the greed of power, sufferers are common people like us. I got to read many Diaries of wartime generals, original archives of pre-independence era and the letters from both sides of India & Pakistan between friends. It could melt any heart, just by reading those letters which were written in the cold lifeless words.
