It

exhibits
showcasing
the
city's

Established
in

Sanskar
Kendra
is
a
mirror
to
the
rich
art
and
cultural
aspects
of
the
city
and
its
glorious
past.
It
captures
Ahmedabad's
journey
in
all
its
different
facets,
from
art
and
craft
to
industry
and
culture
and
everything
else.
The
photographs
show
the
development
of
Ahmedabad
to
what
it
is
today.
And
various
manuscripts
and
pictures
narrate
the
story
of
the
struggle
for
freedom.
The

has
old
relics
and
sculptures

They've
been
put
on

Ahmedabad’s
Kite
Museum
is
also
a
part
of
Sanskar
Kendra.
It
has
a
fascinating
collection
of
kites,

in
Sanskar
Kendra
Museum

The
building
itself
is
an
exquisite
example
of
modern
architecture.
Built
amidst
vast
green
patches
and
plants,
Sanskar
Kendra
was
designed
by
the
renowned
architect
Le
Corbusier.
And
he
incorporated
several
features
in
the
building
keeping
in
mind
the
weather
of
Ahmedabad.
It
has
water
basins
on
the
roof
and
sun-shading
systems
to
keep
it
cool
in
the
unforgiving
heat
of
the
city.
