Description

The World Buddhist Museum is housed in the former High Court, a building with a neo-Classical fa‡ade that once served as the Kachcheri (headquarters of the colonial administration). It charts the expansion of Buddhism in Asia, country by country, and, courtesy of photos, replicas and models, allows visitors to familiarise themselves with the masterpieces of art and architecture left by followers of this religion in most Asian countries.
