NAPIER MUSEUM.



Napier museum is one of the oldest museums in India. It is situated in Trivandrum, the capital of Kerala, India. Napier museum was established in 1855 and rebuilt in 1874. It is an art and history museum. The museum was named under Lord Napier who was the governer at that period.



What makes it unique is the way in which it is designed. This makes the museum attract a lot of people to it. It was built by the architects of the Madras governance. The architectural brilliance is clearly reflected by the level of details of the building. The museum has a number of  great paintings, antique ornaments and other stuff inside it. The ambience of this place could not be described. Many of the people come to the museum just to sit in its premises due to its amazing ambience. 



The museum is also spread over quite some area. There are a variety of trees planted in the surroundings of  the museum. People even come here every morning for their cardio sessions. The museum grounds also include the Trivandrum zoo which is home to a large variety of plants and animals. It is also one of the oldest zoo of the country.
