Amaravati Archaeological Museum, Archaeological museum in Amaravati, India.
The Amaravati Archaeological Museum displays stone sculptures, pottery, and inscriptions from excavations dating back to the 3rd century BCE.
Colonel Mackenzie initiated the first archaeological work at the site in the late 18th century, leading to subsequent excavations by multiple researchers.
The museum exhibits numerous Buddhist artifacts, including life-size Buddha statues and stone carvings that illustrate stories from Jataka tales.
The museum maintains regular visiting hours throughout the week, with guides available to explain the significance of artifacts in multiple languages.
A reconstructed model of the Mahachaitya, an ancient Buddhist stupa, stands in the museum courtyard to demonstrate its original architectural design.
