Get to know the life and teachings of Mahatma Gandhi at National Gandhi Museum. The collections began shortly after his assassination in 1948, and after several relocations, the museum was finally settled in its present location in 1961. Be sure to check out the library, a huge showcase of works from Gandhi and other authors adding up to over 35,000 documents and books. You do not need to be an art lover to enjoy the gallery, which features paintings and other items of Gandhi's. Keep an eye out for his walking stick, shawl, and dhoti worn when he was assassinated. You can also inspect Gandhi's ivory toothpick, and even one of the bullets used to kill the famous leader.

  • History lovers and for those who wanna know about Gandhi Ji's life this place is perfect. The garden, structures, gallery, museum, library and lot more everything is perfect. Must visit at least once in a lifetime.😊
  • Very nice collection of memories and a collection of artistic images, including the only bust that was created with Mohatmas as a live model. It also has the clothes he wore when he was shot and one of the bullets that killed him. The bookstore has some unique items.
