Revisit history at Jallianwala Bagh

                           Jallianwala Bagh

The horrific slaughter that took place in the Jallianwala Bagh has been one of the defining moments in India’s struggle for Independence. There are sections of walls on the opposite side of the park which have visible bullet marks on them. Martyr’s well is another such moving place. If you have watched the movie “Gandhi”, your visit to the park will be an emotional revisiting of the history. But, if one was not familiar with the history of the place, one would think it was a wonderful place to get away from the city’s maddening crowd.
