Considered one of India’s finest specialised destinations, the Calico Museum in Shahi Bagh was the inspiration for historian Ananda Coomaraswamy. Set up in 1949 by the Sarabhai family to document the history of textiles in the country, it has a collection dating back to a few centuries. Exhibited in the glorious setting of the old Sarabhai haveli, this is definitely one you don’t want to miss.
