A Visit to a Museum

A visit to a museum is interesting as well as educative. The Lahore Museum is an important place where work of art, and other objects of historical value are kept and displayed. It is an old importing building with a high ceiling.

The incharge of the museum is called the curator. Our well-informed teacher took us round different of the beautiful museum. It had beautiful paintings of fruit, flowers and natural landscapes. There were nearly arranged glass-cases which displayed ancient swords, daggers, garments, ornaments, coins, bows and arrows. There were tags with brief descriptions on most of the items on display. There were paintings, pictures and clay of models of ancient craftsmanship. The huge statue of Queen Victoria lay in one room of the museum. There were old manuscripts of the Holy Quran in another room. Full size doors and frames with primitive fittings were specimens of rare woodwork craftsmanship, the impressive display in the museum gave us a wealth of information and insight into our past, and it left a deep imprint on my mind.
