★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Although the building and campus is well maintained and is worthy of spending a few hours for strolling around, the artifacts inside were disappointing. The place seemed poorly lit, and dusty like any government establishment.This place would have amused me as a kid in 1990. But we are in 2022 and the kids today are more informed, and need more to be engaged and amused.
There were a few formalin preserved reptiles and usual birds, and skeletons. I expected way more from a natural history museum of Odisha which was supposed to display the rich geological history, rocks, fossils, and the anthropological specimen from the region.
(C'mon the first landmass to come out of the sea in Precambrian earth was discovered to be in Singhbaum, Jharkhand...320 or 350 crore years back... and what are we telling the kids here in a regional museum with few random taxidermied butterfly and dolphin skeletons ?)
Surprisingly the Kolkata museum is flooded with these rock, mineral specimen, fossils, bones and skeletons of prehistoric animals collected from the provinces across Eastern India since 1700s by the British, and it seemed they had less space to put up many more that they have kept in the celler.I wished to see a fraction of these here in Bhubaneshwar.
This is a costly piece of land being wasted with a single floor museum with a somewhat 3-4000 square feet of display area poorly lit, explained and equipped. Natural history museums can be made so attractive that it could replace classrooms in these subjects, engaging the kids. I guess the government can do way better with this museum for the coming generations.
