India has always been on the wishlist of explorers, and everyone was crazy about visiting it due to its diverse culture and absolute prosperity. Even today, foreigners get excited when someone says India, be it in the field of history, travel, science, cricket or even politics. As we approach the 78th Independence Day, there's no better way to honour the nation's journey than by revisiting the places that witnessed the freedom-related struggles and movements that shaped the country. From historic forts to solemn memorials, these ten sites offer a glimpse into the past, allowing us to relive the spirit of India's independence struggle.
RED FORT
Delhi
A symbol of India's struggle for freedom, the Red Fort stands as a testament to the nation's resilience. It was here, on August 15, 1947, that Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India, hoisted the national flag and delivered his iconic "Tryst with Destiny" speech. The fort's majestic walls and sprawling grounds echo the stories of countless freedom fighters and provide a poignant reminder of India's colonial past and its triumphant emergence as an independent nation.
SABARMATI ASHRAM
Ahmedabad
Once the residence of Mahatma Gandhi, the Sabarmati Ashram is a place of immense historical significance. From this serene locale, Gandhi launched the Dandi March in 1930, a pivotal act of civil disobedience against British salt laws. The ashram's museum houses a collection of photographs, letters, and personal belongings of Gandhi, providing insight into the life and philosophy of the Father of the Nation.
