Mahatma Gandhi's Birth House( Kirti Mandir) Parking Plot - Parking lot in Porbandar - Porbandar, India

Porbandar as a pit stop on the way to Dwarka/Somnath works well. It's not worth coming for this. The city is undeveloped. Very little of the old house is there and accessible. Some of it is still under construction. Mostly, it is just a photo gallery, newspaper cuttings, and other information about Gandhiji's life, all of which are available online. The souvenir gallery has very few items, and all are overpriced. You can cover the area in 30 minutes maximum, but I would recommend not stopping at all and spending time to explore some other place.

The place was huge and well maintained there was a well preserved area where Gandhi ji was born and they say that they haven't changed anything except for the paints they reapply within a few years. There was a narrow passage which goes into kasturibai (Gandhi's wife) home on the way there were normal people living... The government has well done in not disturbing the people living in that area and preserving the building. That building was also a 100 year old and the manager was very helpful in explaining things in the house... He said that the building has not gone under any renovation till date and the building is one of the sophisticated buildings during those days as it had toilets, kitchen and dinning hall.

Visited on 31/08/2023. It was a nice experience visiting Kirti Mandir. I got a chance to closely study Mahatma Gandhi's life and personal house.

Kirthi Mandir, This the birth place of Mahatma Gandhi and so is of great historical importance. Visitors allowed in bare foot only, in the actual birth place most of the room is locked for renovation, only one small room is open and their camera photography not allowed for some unknown reason, mobile photography allowed, don't know what is making the difference in between. There are galleries of photographs of mahatma Gandhi of different ages and different movement. Toilet is there on the backside of the building but how to go there in barer foot we don't know. No entry ticket is there, this place is inside residential area so road is congested, no proper parking place, and bad odour of dry fish in nearby place.

Birth place of Gandhi ji turn into beautiful collection of item related to him , just on back side you can visit kasturba Gandhi birth place fun fact they are neighbors

There is no parking area , we have to visit this place with a rickshaw only as it is a very congested area in the public residence area.we have to park our four wheeler at Sudama Mandir 1.5 km from Mahatma Gandhi birthplace.

Visiting 246 year old house built by Gandhi Grandfather, where Mahatma Gandhi live childhood time, very near Kasturba house also present. Good historical place, given one very important person to nation who played key roll in Indian independence from British samrajya.

The museum displays items used by Gandhi, life size paintings of Kasturba and Gandhiji by Shri Yutt along with some old photographs, and houses a library of books either written by Gandhi or relating to his philosophies. This was once a three-story structure that had been altered since Mahatma Gandhi's grandfather built it. History: Shree Darbar Gopaldas Desai, a prominent Gandhian and communist, built the foundation for the current modern edifice, Kirti Mandir, in 1947, during Gandhi's lifetime. Early life and background. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born on 2 October 1869 into a Gujarati Hindu Modh Bania family in Porbandar (also known as Sudamapuri), a coastal town on the Kathiawar Peninsula and then part of the small princely state of Porbandar in the Kathiawar Agency of the British Raj.
