The Mahatma Gandhi Ashram, also known as the Sabarmati Ashram, is a historic place located in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. It was established by Mahatma Gandhi in 1917, and it served as his residence for about 12 years during India's freedom struggle. The ashram is now a museum that preserves and displays Gandhi's belongings, letters, and photographs, providing insights into his life and philosophy of nonviolence (Ahimsa).

Visitors to the Sabarmati Ashram can explore various sections, including Gandhi's living quarters, the library, the Hriday Kunj where he lived with Kasturba Gandhi, and the Vinoba-Mira Kutir where Vinoba Bhave and Miraben (Madeleine Slade) resided. The ashram also has a prayer ground where Gandhi conducted prayers and meetings.

The Sabarmati Ashram is not just a historical site but also a place of reflection and learning about Gandhi's principles and contributions to India's independence movement. It continues to attract tourists and researchers interested in Gandhian philosophy and the history of India's struggle for freedom.
