The philatelic bureau is inside the Mauritius Postal Museum building.
Another friend from Vienna has similar experience.
Eintritt 150 Ru pro Person ca. 3 €
The museum has an extensive collection of stamps, postcards, and other philatelic items, including the famous Blue Mauritius stamps. These stamps are rare and highly valued by collectors worldwide, and the museum has an impressive collection of them on display.
Apart from the stamp collection, the museum also houses several exhibits showcasing the evolution of postal services in Mauritius. Visitors can see old postal equipment, including mailboxes, stamping machines, and postmen uniforms. There is also a collection of old photographs and documents that provide a glimpse into the past and how the postal system played a vital role in the country's development.
One of the museum's highlights is the replica of an old postal coach, which was used in the early days to transport mail from one town to another. Visitors can get on board the coach and experience what it was like to travel in those times.
The museum also has a gift shop where visitors can purchase postcards, stamps, and other souvenirs. There is also a cafe on the premises where visitors can relax and enjoy a snack or a cup of coffee.
Overall, the Mauritius Postal Museum is an excellent destination for anyone interested in history or philately. It's a unique and educational experience that provides a glimpse into the country's past and the role that the postal system played in it.
Die Blaue Mauritius ist die seltenste und mit 8Mio Euro die wertvollste Briefmarke der Welt!
