Mahatma Gandhi once lived in this simple, two-story building, which is now a museum, library and research center depicting Gandhi's life and struggles for Indian freedom through peaceful means.
Mani Bhavan was where Gandhi lived from 1917 to 1934, and it was the focal point of his political activities. It is now the most fascinating museum, containing many of his books and papers, and in which his very simple bedroom with spinning wheel, has been preserved just as he left it. One can stand on the very spot on his balcony where he addressed the crowds. Not to be mossed if you are visiting Mumbai

I can’t quite understand why this museum only has 4 reviews. A fabulous building set in beautiful grounds the museum houses a very interesting collection. Not to great to overwhelm but more than enough to interest. It’s well laid out with good signage. Originally build to commemorate the visit of the Price of Wales, later George V, in 1905. A rather splendid statue of him stands serenely in front of the building that one bore his title. Latterly it’s been renamed, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya museum. I guess this is part of a history cleansing exercise. Rather ironic for a museum.

The BNHS leads the effort in the study of natural history and it's conservation. They conduct study tours and field trips for amateurs as well. They have a gift shop which stocks a variety of gift products such as post cards, mugs, T shirts and more. The library is paradise for nature lovers and a hive for seeking knowledge

Even if you are not interested in history, you will be trapped here once entered. Well arranged museum displays a lot of ancient history items, stuffed animals, birds etc will steal your mind. The building itself is a wonderful creation. One day required to cover every parts in detail. A twenty minute video 'Mumbai experience' in Marathi and English can be watched by paying additional fee (Now Rs.50/head) at the entrance itself. For camera another Rs.50 to be paid. You have to keep your luggage except ladies hand bag in the entrance counter. A food stall available immediately inside the gate. Rates are moderate. Wash room available near the entrance and inside the museum building also. Drinking water facility also provided.

This RBI monetary museum displayed evolution of Indian currencies notes and coins in an exemplary way. Good place to learn about currencies, finance and economy as they are in detailed. Need to improve the old look and should promote in a great way - certainly helps our school kids to know about economy.

I went to Tilak Ali Museum. Maintained by the State Archaeological Department, the Museum is the old ancestral home of the illustrious Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak. It has lots of pictures of the freedom fighter. It is great place to go.
