Entrance Foyer

Visitors entering the museum by crossing the bridge may spend some time in small open courtyard dotted with human scale manikins with embedded sound, eavesdropping on ‘conversations’ that provide a glimpse into the lives of the Sikh Diaspora across the globe.

The triangular shaped Foyer, open on all sides, is the hub of arriving and departing visitors. A large plasma screen orient the visitors on how to derive the maximum benefit from the museum. The cloakroom here is a pivotal point to orient visitors into the museum. The visitors can also avail the facility of  multilingual audio-guides at the issuing station that is located after the first gallery.
