Create an itinerary including Gandhi Memorial
Explore the colorful life of the preeminent leader of India's independence movement at Gandhi Memorial. The origin of the museum dates back to the period soon after the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi in 1948, which initiated a slow process of collecting and preserving many of his personal effects, manuscripts, books, photographs, and journals. Inspect the archived documents in this picturesque two-storey mansion, which portray the philosophy and timeless work of this celebrated figure. Footwear is not allowed in the museum. Put Gandhi Memorial into our Kanyakumari trip builder website to see other points of interest to visit during your vacation in Kanyakumari.
