AGA KHAN PALACE , PUNE , INDIA .

Aga Khan Palace, Pune
The imposing Aga Khan Palace situated at Nagar Road is a must visit destination in Pune for housing the famous Gandhi National Museum in it. Gandhiji, along with his wife Kasturba were interned at the palace for almost two years from August 9, 1942 to May 6, 1944 just after the launch of Quit India Movement. Gandhiji lost his consort Kasturba here in the palace and her samadhi graces the palaces campus. You can even go through the letters, pictures and other memorabilia telling the story of the Father of the Nation.
