International Dolls Museum

It has the history of various dolls from India and around the world.it is mainly the history of different places that can be found here

They only accept cash. The facility of payment through UPI should be available. Many dolls are in bad condition. There is only a small hall in the name of a museum. It needs some upgrades to make it more kid-friendly.

This is a must good place which art culture history together.a place with incredible architecture and soothing ambience.this place has some amazing art effect and a great place to go for which include masterpieces from history and some amazing text which can be a great part of learning

This is actually an amazing place for both kids and adults, they have a lots of dolls from different countries made at different time. It has been maintained by the staff museum. You can find different culture, dresses worn by countries all over. The ticket price for Adult is 20Rs and free for kids. ₹20 extra if you want to click photos only with camera. Overall it's a great place to visit.

These people are offering money for fake 5 star reviews.
Please do not go by the reviews here.most of them are paid and fake.

Was good experience at the museum had a fun with my daughters. Thank you so much for the best memorable day

This place has unique collections of dolls all over the world with brief information about it.
The place is not really big & the entry fees is minimal.
You are not allowed to carry your baggage inside the museum.
It will take around 20-30 mins to explore this place.

It's just there is few small doll handmade n nothing more to look it's just waste of time n money n it's so boring to visit

Nice collection of dolls from all over world. Description mentioned is quite informatics. Definitely five star for single visit

Good collection of dolls with lots of information according to countries
Ticket 10 rs per person

It might be a good place as it named "International Doll Musium" and has also a small auditorium where cultural programs are played, some other languages films are displayed.
Many dolls show the actual culture of the mentioned State & locality, but some are Only copy of each other. Some dolls are donated by the people who visited the foreign countries & brought dolls from there.
It has not been maintained properly, many dolls got damaged due to weather conditions, termite & lack of care. Some lights are not working over the dolls. It's a quite place, having some garden area & beautiful flowers outside the building.
Overall the Musium needs proper care, otherwise it will not remain for long.

The doll museum had a great concept of collecting dolls from places across the globe. But unfortunately the place is not being maintained well. The collection has turned old, dolls have faded out and deteriorated.

Shelling only 10 bucks for the ticket and 5 to click pictures of a world class huge hall full of gorgeous dolls is an experience that I shall cherish forever. It's unbelievable.

Very beautifully organisation of Rajasthani culture.puppets are made out of waste and represents the life style of Rajasthan.

Doll museum is a very clean and well maintained place. It showcases a collection of dolls from all over India depicting different tribes and cultures. It is a very nice and quite place where one can enjoy a quality time with there children. I really enjoyed the display and read interesting facts which earlier I didn't know about. The timings Aurof this museum is from 9am- 5pm. Overall its a nice place to visit for kids and even for elders.

No air conditioning despite the infrastructure being there. The staff was only about 'Don't touch anything'. The dolls were okey but not good enough to hold the attention of most visitors.

Waste of time and money. Have nothing to see, no electricity no air condition no cleaning, full of broken and old dolls even children don't want to come, so small just a 100 yard hall. Even do t want to give a single star

Nice and quite place located in sector 23. Closed on Monday. You'll probably find dolls from almost the Indian states and also from many countries

Yeah good place for Kids and for education. They charge Xtra money for taking Picture.
Dolls looks like they need maintenance.

Nice place good collection of dolls but needs more improvement new additions to be done as most of the things are old now so needs repairment

Dolls are amazing. They have dolls both Mmale and female almost from each and every state of India showing the regional dress. The dolls from around the world also are dressed in their national dress. One time visit with kids is a must.

It was great visiting there.
Atmosphere was good
One can easily reached there because of easy availability of transport.

Ticket price is minimal which is 10/- per head.

It is a good place to see a wide collection of dolls of Indian states and other countries. Though it is not maintained properly. Somewhere dolls were just kept without any purpose and were very basic, depicting nothing.
Entry ticket will cost only Rs. 10 per person and this place does not have centralised Air conditioner which makes it very hot and humid.

Has a good collection of dolls. However, needs improvement on following points:
. Electrical cables spread all around. It is dangerous for a museum meant for kids
. A number of heritage chairs kept there. Absolutely no relevance to dolls museum. This is particularly so when even kids are not permitted to sit on these chairs
. Frequent power failures. No back up generating system
. If we call it as INTERNATIONAL museum, it should function like that.
It does not have even it's own email ID where one can post suggestions

Great place and well maintained.
A place full of knowledgeable things.
Must visit if you have interest in culture of other countries or states.

Our old childhood picnic spot.nice place for kids as it also gives opportunity to learn if they are told about dressing, folk dances, art an heritage of of our rich culture

It is a very good place to bring kids.
According to states culture of india, they have prepare dolls in different cultural dresses.
You may also see international dolls with there cultural dresses.

Not too well kept place. It takes less than an hour to roam about. It’s just a hall with no attractions outside. It would be really nice if they can have little workshops for kids on weekends. It should be an informative and interactive spot so that kids would love to come back over and over again.

A 30 min watch.
Concept is good but innovation is missing.artifacts could be better maintained
A lot of space is available for more items
Broken items must be repaired or removed

It shows us our culture tribes amd other international tribes too.place is so calm everyone feel so boring but this museum is a good source of knowledge

It is located in the center of the city (sec 23 just opposite to the government model senior secondary school 23A) where u can see different kinds of dolls from all over the world and remind you, your childhood memories and they have auditorium with capacity of 200 people with best sound and light renovation completed in 2018 rent is apox 22k

It is a small musium but it has different countries Dolls. And some stories model are also in this musium. If you are with kids who like the doll than it is the right place. But careful they demand for new one.

. Established in 1985, the museum is located at Bal Bhawan, in Sector 23, Chandigarh.

Set up as an entertainment hub for kids, International Dolls Museum has turned into a major tourist attraction of the city. It encompasses an amusement park for children as well as toy trains, apart from its collection of beautiful dolls. As many as 300 different kinds of dolls collected from Denmark, Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Korea and Russia, are displayed in the museum, which is simply a visual delight for kids. Ten murals of the important landmarks of different countries with coloured blowups form the backdrop for the exhibition of dolls.

International Dolls Museum brings an insight into the cultural ethnicity of India, through its separate section dedicated to dolls that depict the popular dance forms of India. Kids would also be spell-bound by the dolls that depict famous story characters, like Aladdin and his Magic Lamp, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Ali Baba and Forty Thieves and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. This makes the museum a must-visit destination for kids. The huge model of German railway station, at the middle of the exhibition hall, is also a visual delight.

With a view to promote international tourism in Chandigarh, the government has upgraded International Dolls Museum over time. The museum underwent renovations in the recent past as well, which has added to its existing beauty and magnificence. The great interiors and pleasant ambiance that have resulted from the renovations have added to the value of the museum, as a chosen tourist spot of Chandigarh.

Badly maintained. They have successfully managed to create a typical “Sarkari” environment in what was supposed to be a cheerful place.
