Room for radio at the Napier Museum

Thiruvananthapuram | Friday | 20th April, 2018

Summary:

Earlier, speakers were installed at different parts of the Museum so that everybody who entered the Museum could listen to the broadcast. The Band Stand, which was designed as a special feature, was where the band of the Travancore Nair Brigade performed on all Fridays. It was during the reign of Ayilyam Thirunal Rama Varma that the Napier Museum was built in the present form. more-inUnder a slightly overcast sky there is a kind of calm all around as I watch the world go by, sitting on one of the benches around the Band Stand at Napier Museum. Every day, till 9.30 pm, one can listen to the broadcast through the eight concealed speakers installed at the Band Stand inside the Museum grounds..
