Sabarmati Ashram

This place has been in my bucket list for a long time. The Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad, the residence of Mahatma Gandhi, Kasturba Gandhi and many of his followers during the important decades in the history of India’s freedom struggle. Today I got to visit the place, complimenting my visit last year to the Raj Ghat in Delhi, the memorial dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi.

Walking through the corridors and the cottages here, it is astonishing to note that from this humble place of peace, Gandhi was able to challenge and take down the mighty British Empire. While there is not much to see here, still this place is a must-visit for every Indian for its place in history.
