Opened in September 2021, Bait-ul-Meeras museum preserves objects of daily use such as butter churners, water heaters and jewellery. For the past year and a half, Arshad Ahmad has spent at least one weekend every month at the Bait-ul-Meeras museum in Aali Kadal in downtown Srinagar. The private museum is just about 10 minutes from his house but he says its transports him back through centuries of Kashmiri history.
