At a distance of 5 km from Mandvi, Shyamji Krishna Varma Memorial is a memorial located near Mandvi in the district of Kutch, Gujarat. Situated on the outskirts of Mandvi Town, it is one of the best places to visit in Mandvi.
Also known as Kranti Teerth, the memorial was built in 2010 by Gujarat Government in honor of an eponymous freedom fighter Shri Shyamji Krishna Varma. Born in 1857 in Mandvi town of Gujarat, he was an Indian revolutionary fighter, lawyer and journalist who founded a revolutionary center in 'India House' at London and propagated the cause of India's independence through his writings in his publication journal called the 'Indian Sociologist'. The main objective of this memorial is to pay tribute to the contribution of Shyamji Krishna Varma and also to educate the young generation about those great Indians who sacrificed everything for the country's freedom.
Spread over 52 acres, the memorial complex houses a replica of India House building at Highgate along with statues of Shyamji Krishna Varma and his wife. Urns containing Krishna Verma's ashes, those of his wife, and a gallery dedicated to earlier activists of Indian independence movement is housed within the memorial. The giant statue of Mahatma on his spinning wheel is an impressive sight. The entire complex is extremely well-maintained and offers calm and quiet environment to the visitor. There is also a small bookshop selling some literature about Shyamji and a food court serving snacks.
This is Historical place.. Visiting for knowledge gain for students and all who is didn't know about shyamji Krishna varmaji.
This is a memorial to the couple who set up India House in London and supported and groomed many of India's freedom fighters in the early 1900's. It is operated and maintained by the Gujarat Mineral Development Corporation Ltd, and they are doing a wonderful job. A must visit for anyone traveling to Kachch.
This memorial is truly marvellous. It truly depicts and gives equal importance to all freedom fighters.
Neat and clean area. Well maintained. Guide is also does job perfectly. Library contains books related to different freedom fighters.
Parking facility is also good.
Very well designed and maintained memorial. Replica of India House and pictures and history of freedom fighters including the role of Shyamji Krishna Varma is a treat and an eye opener. It would appear history is being written. Wonder how and why such heroes were never talked or taught in schools
Many people visiting Gujrat from other states may not know about this freedom fighter. He has done a great by supporting other fighter at London.
It's a replica of the house where Shyamji Bhai was staying in London.
Visiting the Shyamji Krishna Varma Memorial was a truly enlightening experience. The memorial beautifully pays tribute to the life and contributions of a valiant freedom fighter. The exhibits and displays vividly portray his dedication to India's independence struggle and his role in inspiring others to join the cause. The serene surroundings add to the reflective atmosphere, making it a must-visit place for history enthusiasts and anyone seeking to honor the sacrifices made for our nation's freedom."

If you are in mandvi you must visit this place. Just go and know about 1 more freedom fighter Mr shyamji Krishna varma and thanks to our PM Narandra modiji for making this place memorable.
Memorial of Shri Shyamji Krishna Verma who gave his hose in London "India Hose" during first struggle for Indian Independence. It's a replica of the same. Good place to visit, must visit, still developing so much information on Indian Independence struggle.
Nice place. Very peaceful. In summer you prefer to visit at noon. At that place it’s not much hot. There is one beach which is nearly 500m away. Beach is very beautiful and calm. If you don’t like very crowds you must visit that beach.
Must bisit place for every indian to know the contribution of every freedom fighter. This memorial is well maintained, neat and clean. Ample parking space available. Cafeteria is good. Library containts good books. Entry is free. Photography can be done for free. Vande Mataram.
The Memorial’s objective is to pay tribute to the contribution of Shyamji Krishna Varma and also to educate the young generation about those great Indians who sacrificed everything for the country’s freedom.

It looks awesome when I clicked photo of it from outside i looks like wallpaper. In it you will able to see our freedom fighters who fought for our independence.
I visited this place during kutch trip from invincible ngo.
It's really awesome experience
Absolutely worth the time spent. Built in the fond memories of freedom fighter Shyamji Krishna Varma. The last wish of the freedom fighter to bring back his ashes to "free Hindustan" is now being fulfilled. Also one more attraction about the place is the replica of India House London is built in the center of the Memorial which now houses the memories of past freedom fighters who fought the silent battle for freedom, whose contributions were not aptly recognized post Independence.
My humble request is, at the ground floor of the Memorial an AV is played about Panditji's life, which is played in Gujrathi Language, which in my opinion must be in Hindi so that fellow travellers like me can understand.
A must must visit place for all whenever you visit Kutch.
It's located on way to Mandi Beach.
Very well maintained and beautiful place where you came to know about many freedomfighters, some of which are unknown hidden Gem.
Staff is very knowledgeable and cooperative.
Very Nice Place.
In memory of the revolutionary and freedom fighter of India, Shri Shyamji Krishna Verma... a place where the bones of such a great personality rest on the soil of his country.
The outlook is great however there is just photo gallery inside. The photos of freedom fighters are pasted on the wall. The place is build in British style home. Overall experience was moderate.
Good to know the history of Shyamji Krishna Verma. Awesome experience.
Shyamji Krishna Varma the first freedom fighter. It’s good to honour such people who died in pride for nation.
There is no entry fees or parking fees. Most of place is eco friendly. They have solar panels for electricity. Really beautiful place and surrounding.
It is completely devoted to Shyamji Krishna Varma. The ashes of the freedom fighter is kept here. As his last wish was that his ashes will come to India after freedom. You can give digital shraddhanjali to him here. Advancement with technology can be seen here. There is book store where you can find many books.
Many people will find it boring as there are only photo frame of story and people related to it.
The house built here is exact same replica as it was in London.
View of surrounding is very beautiful.
There is a small theatre where you can watch a short movie of around 15-16min in life of Shyamji Krishna Verma.
Place for history lovers.
