Shankar’s International Dolls Museum

Set up by K Shankar Pillai (1902–89), a renowned political cartoonist, who started collecting dolls in 1950 after he was given one as a gift from the Hungarian ambassador, this museum, right beside ITO metro station, has an impressive if quirky collection of more than 7000 costumed dolls from 85 countries.
