Mani
Bhavan is located at 19 Laburnum Road, near August Kranti Maidan. This
was the building where Mahatma Gandhi stayed during his frequent visits
to Bombay from 1917-1934. It is a charming, three-story Gujarati house,
painted brown and yellow, now turned into a museum. The place acts as
a research institute in Gandhian thought and Rural Development by the
Mumbai University. The museum contains a reference library of over 2000
books, a photo collection of his life and many well-preserved memorabilia
including the famous spinning wheel (charkha). It is open daily from 9.30am
to 6pm.
