Raj Ghat New Delhi Travel
A big ground and Mahatma Gandhi’s mausoleum in front.
So, after keeping the shoes in the shoe rack, we came to Gandhi’s Samadhi. A tomb made of black marble on which Gandhiji’s last words are written.
And then, we came to Veer Bhoomi, the Samadhi of Rajiv Gandhi. And after that, we go to Shakti Sthal which was built in the memory of Indira Gandhi and here you can pay tribute with flowers.
After this many people leave from here. But now we go to Gandhi Darshan Museum where there is no entry fee. You will get to see many things inside.
Here you can get a lot of information related to the life of Gandhiji.
If you are visiting Rajghat then I would definitely recommend you to visit Gandhi Darshan Museum.
