Spread over three floors the Dandi Kutir is a tech savvy space dedicated to the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi.

As I was staying at The Leela Gandhinagar, I had a great view of the space from my room which I learnt was a new age museum with a tech twist.

The three floors are dedicated to Gandhi Childhood & Education, his journey from an English Gentleman to Satyagrahi Gandhi and Gandhi in India and the Freedom Movement.
