Bhavnagar is a seaside city, located in the state of Gujarat near to the Saurashtra peninsula. Bhavnagar is also famous for its version of the popular Gujarati snack 'Ganthiya' and 'Jalebi.
The Gandhi Smruti complex, popularly known as the Gandhi memorial, was inaugurated in 1955 and is located in the heart of Bhavnagar, directly across from a clock tower. The museum was founded in 1955 and now houses books, rare photographs, and memorabilia related to Mahatma Gandhi's life.
History: Mahatma Gandhi attended the University of Bhavnagar, which is a little-known fact. Gandhi Smruti is a living memorial to Mahatma Gandhi. It first opened its doors in 1955. This is a sort of compound attached to the city's central clock tower. On all four sides, the tower bells ring out with music and timing. A Gandhi picture gallery, showcasing books, rare photos, and memorabilia associated with Mahatma Gandhi's life from birth to death, a small museum of ancient things, a large departmental Khadi Gramodyog Bhandar, and a first-class, well-established, and well-organized running library are all available at the Smruti.
