Description:
- Set up in 1952, this museum is Mumbai's only community museum. It started out as a showcase for the odds and ends that Alpaiwalla, a Parsi bullion merchant, collected from around the world. This includes material from Parsi scholar Jamshed Unwalla's archaeological digs in Susa in Iran, an ancient astodan to store the bones of the dead, paintings of pre-Zorastrian myths and photos of famous Parsis.
