Have you ever seen the glorious CSMT building passing by and wondered what does it house?? Well, your wish can come true. There is a Museum inside the CSMT building, that not a lot of people know about but incorporates hidden historical treasures. The building also has great architectural significance(High Victorian Gothic style), which makes it a must go for ARCHITECTURAL ENTHUSIASTS.
