The museum is dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi and his Charkha. Gandhi was a vocal advocate of Charkha and the museum has an interesting display of various types of Charkhas. It is not a very large museum and you can see all the exhibits in under 30 minutes.n.nhe museum is housed in the garden area in the middle of Connaught Place. The building itself is a one roomed Neoclassical building that completely white. I understand that the Charkha was important tool that Gandhi thought would be a point of national rejuvenation for India. The exhibits are beautifully exhibited, but there’s not much information and to be honest, I actually didn’t learn very much.

This meusem is dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi's life , charkha and khadi clothes.nwhile entering they provided one tag made of khadi threads as a ticket. Different types of charkhas and spectacles of Mahatma Gandhi was kept there. A large sized charkha was built outside is very beautiful.

It was just a museum of charkha that are used by Mr.gandhi .and it gives us knowledge about how they made their own cloths by making threads by the help of charkha.

The National Charkha Museum is a museum exhibiting the history and evolution of humble spinning wheel, the Charkha. The museum is housed in the garden area in the middle of Connaught Place. The building itself is a one roomed Neoclassical building that completely white. I understand that the Charkha was important tool that Gandhi thought would be a point of national rejuvenation for India. The exhibits are beautifully exhibited, but there’s not much information and to be honest, I actually didn’t learn very much.nnThe two steel sculptures on the grounds of the were more interesting. One is a lion made up of charkha wheels, the order a giant sculpture of a charkha wheel. The entrance fee for the museum is basically pocket change, so plus one star for that.

A good museum to see antique thread weavers made up of wood. Entry ticket costs Rs 20. One can opt for a khadi handkerchief or thread used for weaving. There is a weaving machine installed where one can try weaving skills or simply take pictures with it.
