#67: A Visit To Mother's Wax Museum, Kolkata - Part 1

Kolkata got it's 1st wax museum - __Mother's Wax Museum__(also known as MWM) in the year 2014. It has been named after Mother Teresa. The museum has been built right opposite to the other famous tourist spot of Kolkata - __Eco Park__. __MWM__ is spread over two floors and is divided into different sections - _Literature, Music, Cinema, Sports, Comics, National Leaders and a lot more_.

__* Freedom Fighters, Spiritual Gurus, Activists :__

As soon as you enter, a soothing music will feel your ears and on each side on the walls, you'll find old photographs of the freedom fighters of __India__. The adjacent area is dedicated to spiritual gurus and social activists. The first statue that you'll come across is that of the Father Of The Nation - __Mahatma Gandhi__. Followed by __Mother Teresa, Swami Vivekananda, Sharda Devi, Sri Aurobindo__ and many more.

__* Political Leaders :__

The next section was dedicated completely to the political leaders of India. The pictures on the wall will be enough to tell you the entire history of India from the time of Independence! So many national leaders, activists and politicians in a single frame! There are photographs put which have been taken before India even got it's Independence.

__* Sports :__

Unfortunately, the sports section didn't have much to offer. With few famous cricketers from India and few famous footballers from abroad, this area only had paintings on the walls of few other sports personalities. As far as the wax figures were concerned, there were only 6 of them - __Virat Kohli, Messi, Maradona, Sachin Tendulkar, Kapildev, Sourav Ganguly__.

__* Science :__

The sculptures of __Einstein, S.N. Bose, J.C. Bose__ has been made to perfection. When I entered, I saw a lady getting her photograph clicked with Einstein and for a second I actually thought an old couple was standing there! The walls in this section also tell the story of the great achievements and awards received by famous scientists all across the globe.

__* Horror House :__

This was a completely unexpected section in the museum. Dark, creepy with shrill laughter and weird noises as the background music! To be honest, I was a little hesitant to enter. It was a completely dark room with light only falling on the scary figures!

![7.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmaMA1GCeGYeJYWz6uiLDxHD7WPXRJt66t529xiiJ4h46d/7.jpg)

__* Sci-Fi Movies :__

The next section was completely dedicated to the animated and the sci-fi movies and it's main characters. Looking at them closely, you'll appreciate the sculptors hard-work as even the minute details have been taken care of. Many figurines were there from the movie _Avatar_. The famous Indian character _Jaadoo_ was also present along with _E.T._

![2.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmVfxeXMycGXKjLbmRmp2kAyXt8fJL8VqS5Hu7dKc1crZw/2.jpg)

__* Tattoo Room :__

This room was so much fun and interesting. It was called the _Tattoo Room_. Earlier visitors had to pay some extra bucks to get inside but now they've made it free of cost. Basically projectors are put inside and on all the four walls of the room various patterns will keep popping up. You can stand against the wall and get camouflaged.

![13.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZnQrd12uYMUAJxLhuM1jUrxk3HF7wpcJn2EaG3TAXHmQ/13.jpg)

When I first heard about the museum, I didn't have a lot of expectation from the place as I've been to other wax museums before and they were pretty disappointing. But MWM proved me wrong. It's unlike all the other museums in India - a lot of figurines, well-maintained with so many unseen photographs of renowned personalities and knowledgable staff to guide you around. If you ever pay a visit to Kolkata make sure to check out __Mother's Wax Museum.__

_Cheers!_

yes..some of them were really creepy :D
And in India we have a lot of small wax museums in various places but they aren't as well maintained as this one.

Scary! Those wax models in the Horror House. Would love to visit just to get a bit of a fright! Well done with the post and thanks for promoting the #travelfeed tag as well as the Discord group :)

We would love to do a tour of India. We have friends based or from there, so we've had plenty of invitations to visit the country. In time we will. :)

During my stay in India  I heard of this wax museum  but I have not been to Kolkata.    Well also I did not expect wax statues of Messi and Maradona. 
 In  India football is not popular like cricket which is the national sport.

Cricket is not the national sport of India but yes it's the most popular. Football is slowly gaining popularity as well...It's quite popular in Kolkata and Maradona has a huge fan following here...I guess that's the reason they picked up Messi and Maradona for the museum :D

I thought that cricket was the most popular one  I remember when on sunday  I was walking in my neighborhood in Delhi and  I used to see boys playing  cricket on the road :)
