Must see in Jaisalmer
A lovely, unique and authentic experience in Jaisalmer. Mr N.K Sharma is so knowledgeable & passionate about the culture surrounding this beautiful city. We went to the lake for sunset then caught the puppet show at 7.30 followed by a walk through the museum. Stunning puppets, beautiful music & friendly people. Highly recommend as a must do in Jaisalmer.

Must Visit!
Visiting this Museum and watching the Puppet show was one of the highlights of our trip to Jaisalmer. One cannot help but develop great respect for the deep knowledge and love with which Mr. Sharma has built this place and communicates its rich heritage to others. It was indeed a privilege to be able to speak with him in person, and to read the books that he has written with his unique perspective of Jaisalmer, having lived through the time of Kings, the British Raj and Independent India. As an octogenarian, it was amazing to witness his ease in talking about social media and to acknowledge both the pros and cons of the interconnected digital world of today. Please do take some time out to visit this Cultural Centre during your trip to Jaisalmer – it will be a truly enriching experience.

Kudos to Mr. Sharma to preserve the Rajasthani heritage.
An amazing place to discover the fast exhausting cultural heritage of jaisalmer. Mr. N K Sharma and his son's relentless efforts to preserve the cultural richness deserves a bow-down. Loved the puppet show and the museum. Most importantly loved Mr. Sharma's passion towards what he does. While showing us the museum, he not only told the folklore behind the artefacts but also sang songs. Everyone must visit this place and contribute in Mr. Sharma's efforts to restore the rich Rajasthani heritage.
