Thanks for sharing, on the to-do list for our next visit up north. :thumbs up

Wow. This is amazing. Thanks for sharing. I really didn't know this existed. I knew about the rail museum in Delhi and have visited, but not this one.

Lovely curation and they have done a fab display clap:

I am surely visiting this very soon.

What if I tell you there's another place just as spectacular, also about an hour from Gurgaon.

You must visit NeverEnuf, a miniature world focussing on railways / transport. It has been created incredible well, and to an immense level of detail and accuracy. Do call in advance, and plan to spend at least 3-4 hours. :)

Thank you so much for this. I have been living in Gurgaon since 2007 and was completely un-aware about this garden. I always wanted to visit such a place.:loveit

Thats really lovely. Pics as good as visiting the museum. Reminded me of National technical museum Prague that has shows the Czechoslovakian technical prowess and includes just about everything of Skoda and Jawa.

Hey really a hidden gem. Its on my visit list for last many months. But every time something or the other kept on coming.

Amazing clicks and captions by you. Great effort.

Your pics have really provided the motivation to visit the place as soon as possible. May be during Dusshera holidays.

Wow !! Thanks for this hidden Gem and letting us know about it. Wonderful collection and nicely maintained !!

I have been to Ford Museum in Detroit, Michigan, USA couple of times. There is a factory tour also (was closed on my day of visit on both occasions :crying)

I spent more than half a day to go through all the exhibits

Wonderful and nice photographs. Thanks for igniting the flame to pay a visit.

It was great to take a fresh look at the Heritage Transport Museum through your lens, almost a decade after our own visit there. It's wonderful to see the displays evolving, with new vehicles added (and some taking on an art form), under the able stewardship and enthusiasm of Mr. Tarun Thakral and his team. I guess it's time for another visit there sometime soon.

Didn't knew it existed.

Thanks for the post!

Mr. Tarun Thakral, COO at Le Meridien Hotels, Delhi is the man behind the Heritage Transport Museum, Tauru, Gurugram.

It is a lovely place which was inaugurated towards the end of 2013 I guess.

I remember first having paid a visit in May 2014 followed by a recent visit on 15/08/2022, during our Delhi BHPians Independence Day 2022 drive.

A few pics from our visit last year are appended hereinbelow.

A satisfying and proud moment as Heritage Transport Museum, Taoru - Gurgaon, India completes 10 years today. Delighted with the continuous support received from visitors, officials, team members, friends and family during this exciting journey in the Museum space. The museum continues to be a source of inspiration to all age groups and one of the few that has proven to be sustainable over 10 years. With many more improvements planned our next decade should be even more exciting.
Thank you all for your continued support .
