The museum offers a variety of activities to its guests. Visitors are welcome to go around the grave and leave flowers as a tribute to the king. The walls of the museum are covered with stunning murals. The museum also displays the coins and weaponry used by Pazhassi Raja.

The renowned paintings of Kerala's beloved artist, Raja Ravi Varma, whose creations gained the State international renown, are on exhibit at the Pazhassi Raja Museum and Art Gallery, which is close to the museum. Medieval toys, ceramics, stone replicas of temples, burial urns, and umbrella stones are among the displays (tomb stones of rulers).

Along with official caps worn by British and French soldiers, the museum also houses a collection of military weapons used by British soldiers. The Panchaloha idols and stone statues, referred to as "War heroes," are among the museum's notable collections. Children are drawn to the museum's 3-D short film theatre, which shows a film about wildlife.

The museum honours Pazhassi Raja, a king who the British previously considered to be one of their most dreaded rulers. Guerrilla warfare is also credited with having been introduced by Pazhassi Raja in the Wayanad hills to combat the unbearable British colonialism. A tomb honouring the local hero is built next to the museum, which chronicles the king's whole life.
