Gandhi Bhawan, Museum and auditorium at Panjab University in Chandigarh, India.
The Gandhi Bhawan building stands in the center of a reflecting pool, featuring angular walls and geometric patterns across its modernist structure.
Architects B.P Mathur and Pierre Jeanneret designed this educational center in the 1960s as part of Chandigarh's institutional development plan.
The building contains an extensive collection of books, photographs, and artifacts documenting Mohandas Gandhi's philosophy and social movements.
Visitors can access the Gandhi Bhawan through Panjab University's main entrance, with guided tours available from October through March.
The entrance displays a Sanskrit inscription reading 'Truth is God' alongside a mural that incorporates elements of traditional Indian architecture.
