Removed Chaitanya Museum
[edit]
I've removed the listing and the accompanying picture of the Chaitanya Museum added by Amitabha Gupta from this article, because it is under construction and not yet open to public. As far as I know, only attractions open to public are listed in travel articles.
- 1 Chaitanya Museum, 16/A, Kaliprasad Chakraborty Street. P. O : Baghbazar, ☏ +91 9051781493, info@chaitanyamuseum.org. For almost a century, the Gaudiya Mission has been instrumental in spreading the doctrine of Gaudiya Vaishnavism as practiced and preached by Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. The Mission was established in 1918 by Srimad Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Gosvami Prabhupada and since then, the main objective of the institution has been to render devotional and spiritual service to humanity. With 64 branches spread across India and other countries, the Mission has been relentlessly spreading the message of love, peace, and universal brotherhood.The “ Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu Museum ” project is a key initiative by the Gaudiya Mission to honor the teachings of love and devotion expounded by Mahaprabhu and also as a tribute to his 525th anniversary. The museum is being constructed on the mission premises itself in Bagbazar, a neighborhood by the river Ganges where Mahaprabhu himself had passed by five centuries ago. The museum is planned as a three-storied structure standing on approximately 1350 square meters of area. The galleries will be accommodated within 1000 square meters while the remaining will be used as public utility areas and library spaces devoted for epistemological pursuit.
