Ethno

Tribal Tourism, Volksgruppen, Archaische Lebensweisen, "konnten sich viel von ihrer Ursprünglichkeit bewahren", weitgehend unberührt von den Einflüssen der modernen/westlichen Lebensweise, traditionelle Gesellschaft, Wirtschaftsfaktor Ethnizität im Tourismus, etc.

The Don Bosco Museum of Indigenous Cultures at DBCIC (Don Bosco Centre for Indigenous Cultures) is Asia's largest Museum of Indigenous Cultures of its kind. In it the visitor can have an overview of the whole of North East India. Rising into Shillong's skyline the Museum is a seven storey building with 17 well laid out Galleries of international standard containing artefacts, paintings, fibreglass figures - all a feast to the eyes and a source of knowledge. The topmost Gallery is where the visitors can relax and enjoy some of the rare dances of the North East. The Museum is indeed a surprise to visitors both from India and from abroad. Its best publicity are the visitors themselves who come to see it.

Here are what our visitors have written: 

" The Museum is really a treasure house of our cultural heritage"

  (M.M. Jacob, former Governor of Meghalaya) 

"A well-crafted, thoughtfully planned and informative museum, replete with an excellent and exhaustive display of various aspects of all important tribes of the North East… A landmark achievement of international standards."

  (Neena Ranjan, IAS, Secretary Culture, GOI)

"Extremely captivating and an important centre for the preservation of Culture..."

  (Charles Pyngrope, Minister, Tourism, Govt. of Meghalaya)
