β β β β β The Mahatma Gandhi Sangrahalaya is a museum themed on the martyred 'Father of the Nation' Bapu Mahatma Gandhi, located just opposite to his memorial at the Rajghat. It is a large complex with an upasanalaya themed upon Sabarmati Ashrama, exhibitions of the 'charka', and a huge collection of photographs of the life of Gandhiji and things he used in his lifetime. Photography/Videography is not allowed within the museum.

β β β β β For someone so famous and so important I would have thought the museum would be much better. It has pictures and some objects but nothing compared to what it should be. The memorial outside where his cremated remains are easy to miss with a small sign indicating what it is

β β β β β This is not a proper Museum as such but Gandhi Darshan, it showcases life of Mahatma through 100's of photo-pictures.
The different phases of Mahatma's life are categorised and given a seperate compartment.
Special Attractions: the boat used during Dandi March 1930 and the vehicle used to carry his mortal remains, miniscule Sabarmati Ashram models.
This premises is mainly visited by Gandhian Scholars,
Drinking water available. No entry fee,

β β β β β This complex houses various things which I will mention below:
Generic information first - toilets are neat and clean. There is a mini canteen inside the complex and a full service canteen in the parking lot. Food is good, quantity sufficient and prices reasonable. One can also buy evergreen Choley Kulcha for Rs20 a plate outside the parking lot from a street vendor. Parking is free. Souvenir shop is there in parking lot. This complex along with Rajghat, deserves a day worth of visit.
Museum - it consists of hundreds of photographs and paintings of his lifetime of work with detailed descriptions. It is structured in rooms in progression and also houses the boat in which he traveled, the jeep in which his body was carried for cremation and more things. Entry is free. It is very well ventilated which makes it difficult to spend sufficient time during extreme winters or summers.
Journey through sculptures made of mud - they are also in the process of installing touch screen informative computer screens.
Khadi Outlet - this is where various types of garments are made from Khadi cloth and are sold here too. Decent collection.
Library - tons of books, free for all to read here.
Books outlet - where they sell books.
IGNOU - Office of Indira Gandhi National Open University. Always crowded by College goers and their parents to collect books and other work.
Khadi Gram Udyog Training Center - where trainings are conducted on various things often sold through Khadi Outlets like honey business.
Industrial Training Center - an excellent place which offers short term courses for a long list of vocations.
Incubation Center - which organizes half day workshops on various businesses followed by active assistance in guiding to scale and run a business.

β β β β β This place is basically a visual biography of Gandhi. Every event of his life is represented by an image which is either a photograph or a sketch.
One can quickly lose interest here as the texts for the images aren't placed conveniently, has no air conditioning, no guide, no audio tours etc
It's highlight is that one may find documents and rare pictures of Gandhi which is not easily available online.
