A rather unusual museum dedicated to the global history of sanitation and toilets. The objective in establishing this museum was to highlight the need to address the problems of the sanitation sector in India.
The Sulabh International Museum of Toilets in Delhi is run by the Sulabh International, dedicated to the global history of sanitation and toilets. According to Time magazine, the museum is one of the weirdest museums among the "10 museums around the world that are anything but mundane". It was established in 1992 by Dr. Bindeshwar Pathak, a social activist, founder of Sulabh Sanitation and Social Reform Movement, recipient of national and international awards including the Stockholm Water Prize in 2009. His objective in establishing this museum was to highlight the need to address the problems of the sanitation sector in the country, considering the efforts made in various parts of the world in this field since the third millennium BCE.

A stepwell discovered in 2011 under the foliage of thick vegetation and undergrowth and hidden behind a large group of tall trees. The Dwaraka Baoli finds a mention in the list of Maulvi Zafar Hasan of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). Maulvi Zafar Hasan documented the list of baolis in 1910 and listed over 100 baolis in and around Delhi. It was listed as the Loharheri Baoli or the Blacksmith’s stepwell. It is a 22-step stepwell or baoli, made of rubble masonry. The well, now covered by an iron grill, is situated on the southern end of the baoli. The side wall contains two sets of recessed arches. It is a small baoli with no ornamentation and not much of general tourist interest.
