Guinness World Record Sea Shell Art Museum in Chintāmani

Most of the art here is exquisite! To think that someone spent 7 years or so on a single piece is incredible.

Very creative place, unbelievable decorative items made of sea shells. You get cute seashells jewellery inside this place.

This is a nice place and worth visit for sure.You will love the arts and even can buy few small things which are damn cheap.

Very well done arts with a snail 🐌

He must visit place in Mysore. You should spend at least 15 to 20 minutes, if not more.Collections of souvenir available in the shop is also excellent.

Please dont waste your 60 rupees and time. Not worth it!Its the art that can be appreciated but 60 rs entrance fee is too much, in my opinion 10 rs is fine.

This place has the masterpiece created with variety of sea shells collected and the efforts goes from past 40 years and the art made is pretty amazing and the efforts are unmatched for the models they have created.These models created is recorded by Guinness World record and the lady who does this have been awarded for their Masterpiece

Once visit place...Best excitement is for kids

A beautiful musuem where everything is made of sea shells. Its worth the visit. There is a statue of lord ganesh built using different sea shells and a replica of philomenas church using 26 different types of sea shells. It is a must visit place for art lovers. Entry ticket is 60 rs per person. There is a selfie point where one can take pictures.

We could hv easily missed going to this place .we are glad that we visited .. creativity at its peak .each sculpture present there was mind blowing .each took around 7&1/2 years unbelievable...so many year of dedication .best out of waste was best. We got an opportunity to meet Radha Mallappa, whos the creator of this beautiful place, in person. She was so humble i must say .few handmade jewellery shop were also there with many collections at very reasonable price..good place to shop and also support women-lead business .

Great place. Must watch with kids. Lot of interesting ideas for budding artists. Also a lot of creative artwork using day today commonplace stuff!

Awesome creativity using the sea shells & other materials... The museum area is small but the art work done is excellent. I have seen different designs using shells but this is the first of its kind. I would recommend people to visit this place if u like to explore some creative skills.The shell museum and sand museum are close by on chamundi hill road..Entry fee is Rs 60 for 10 years and above

I never visited this kind of Museum in my life. Its like a dream once you enter here. The artist made those architecture so well using sea shell which makes me spellbound.I would highly recommend people to come and check their work as its a very small museum which is easily get skipped.

Good to spend half an hour to one hour here. Small museum, entry fee is 60 rupees/head. Some how better than Same Museum which is nearby (less than half km).

Very good art , and well maintained inside and lot of effort put in for creating these art. If you are a Art lover you have to visit here once.

A very good place, it is a small place that you can visit and return quickly... recommended if you are visiting Mysore

Its not so recommended to visit compulsory, just if you have some time to pass while going or coming back from chamundi hills do have a look into this museum. Entry fee is too much. They are taking Rs.60/- per head. Visiting this place with that entry fee is not at all worthable to watch. All the stuff inside the museum is made up of seashells. Only thing is we will go inside of the museum and comeback out , it will take not more than half an hour to look over all the things inside the museum

I never visited such kind of mesuem..one shoul visit this..there is such a mind-blowing art you will see here..all things are made up of different kind or sea shells..really its worth visiting just for 30rs entry ticket..i bet you gonna love this mesuem..❣️❣️

Small place that you could easily go past but once you enter it is a mini wonderland created by an artist all out of shells making various statues and historic buildings of India. Also can buy items such as earrings and bangles and various other items made from shell at a reasonable price made by the same artist. Definitely a great place to visit in mysore with family. Ticket price too was decent.

Awesome place. Must visit for all mysore visiters. The art forms here took 40 years to make and made entirely out of a variety of sea shells.

Very good place to visit with kids and family to know the artifacts created by waste sea shell and the guiness world record holder herself will be available in the place to describe its making .

This is a gem. the shell museum is enroute the Nandi hill and is a sight to behold. Has basic toilet facilities and is a good trip to take. They use shells to make structures and models. Wonderful dedication and an insignia of India but getting the Guinness world record. Must visit to support the owner for taking such hard work

This place is a must visit. It is very easy to miss from the main road. The lady who created these magnificent replicas and other items truly deserves a place in the record books. I was specially impressed with the Lord Ganesha idol and the scale replica of St.Philomenas church.Entry fee is minimum. Kids will love this place. There are many beautiful things crafted from sea shells. Its a relatively small area so the tour doesnt take more than 20-30mins.

Amazing art work. Unbelievable actually. The amount of hard work she put on building this museum is commendable. Organized in a well mannered way . Though the entrance looks not so great. Just like a jackfruit. Ugly outsize heaven inside.

We loved her creations and something very unique. Check out the photos. This type of talent needs recognition and support. Pleas visit whenever you are in Mysore.
