One of the two military museums in the country, the Naval Aviation Museum, in Goa, was inaugurated in 1998. It is the only aviation museum in Asia. The chief attractions of the place are displays of Indian aircraft that were used in the history of the Navy. These are displayed in an open-air gallery outside the museum. The interior of the museum has been built to look like the inside of a naval aircraft carrier. Several galleries display naval equipment, a simulation room and exhibits from prominent battles.
