Dolls Museum in Jaipur is perhaps the most famous among
all other museums of 'Pink City' and is largely visited
by tourists from all over the globe. The museum is home
to a large number of lovely dolls representing different
cultures across the world. One is sure to be mesmerized
with the striking beauty of these dolls clad in the
traditional attires of various countries at the Dolls
Museum in Jaipur.
Situated about 4 km from the city center, Dolls Museum
was built in 1974 with the purpose of providing an insight
into the different cultures that are present all over
the world. There are a large number of Indian dolls
depicting the traditional costumes of different states
across India. One can see the local attire of Gujarat,
Bengal, Assam, Kashmir, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Punjab
and several other Indian states at the Dolls Museum
in Jaipur. The most striking are bridal dresses of different
states like Mysore, Kerala, Gujarat, Bengal and Punjab.
The particular costumes of different classical dance
forms in India like Bharatanatyam, Kathakali, Odissi
and Kuchipudi have also been beautifully put on display
at the Dolls Museum of Jaipur.
There is an equally splendid variety of dolls portraying
the culture of both developed nations as well as the
Third World. The national dresses of USA, Britain, Mexico,
Spain, Sweden, Germany, Ghana, Uganda, Lebanon and Afghanistan
are particularly striking. Beautiful dolls dressed up
in the bridal wear of Japan, Malaysia, Burma, China
and New Zealand look absolutely stunning and add to
the beauty of the already magnificent costumes. The
Dolls Museum in Jaipur creates a small fairytale world
of its own. The way in which dolls have been used to
present the varied cultures across the globe is indeed
commendable.
