The Araku Tribal Museum provides visitors with an opportunity to understand the cultural heritage of the Eastern Ghats and the indigenous communities who have lived in the region for generations.

The museum uses exhibits, models and artefacts to present aspects of traditional tribal life. Displays include traditional tools, hunting equipment, kitchen utensils, musical instruments, ornaments, handicrafts and representations of tribal settlements.

The museum is particularly valuable because Araku is not only a landscape destination—it is also a cultural destination. The traditions, agriculture, crafts, music and dance of local communities form an important part of the valley's identity.

Visitors can also learn about Dhimsa, the famous traditional dance associated with the tribal communities of the Araku region.
