Ganga Deri is located on the bank of Famous 'Gangajaliya Talab' in Bhavnagar. This place is historical and builted by an English Architecture with an order of Maharaja Takhtsinhji in 1875 A.D. King Takhtsihji builted this Monument in memory of her Loving Queen, who died after giving birth of a Son. This monument is build with white marbles. We can feel cold breeze and calm here. I think this place needs to be care by Authorities.
Its just look good in pictures. And the place is not clean and all
At a distance of 1 km from Bhavnagar Railway Station, Ganga Deri is a memorial situated on the banks of Gangajaliya Talao in Bhavnagar, Gujarat. It is one of the historical places to visit in Bhavnagar. Ganga Deri is a historical monument standing tall in the middle of the city as a silent witness through the history of Bhavnagar. This marble monument was built in 1983 AD by Maharaja Takhtsinhji in memory of his wife Maharani Rajba who died in 1875 while giving birth to the heir Bhavsinhji. It was designed by Sir John Griffith, who was the principal of J.J. School of Art, Bombay. The architectural style of the monument is a synthesis of Mughal and Rajput. Looks like a mini Taj Mahal, this elegant edifice has a chhatri, pavilion, and bridge all of which are built of white marble. The grills carved with delicate floral motifs and the columns are the distinctive features of the monument. This two storied structure was built as the centerpiece of the then Gangajaliya Talao. Though today, it stands on the banks of the lake which shrank as it has been reclaimed for other uses, it still holds its own identity.
I like it ganga deri , this is a amazing place
A historical and scenic place
Ganga Deri is located on the bank of Famous 'Gangajaliya Talab' in Bhavnagar. This place is historical and builted by an English Architecture with an order of Maharaja Takhtsinhji... While this place is architecturally great and one of the best built during its time, it's the surroundings that make it even greater. Nestled between buzzing city bus stand (Gaam nu Talav) and city lake (Gangajaliya Talav) - Ganga Deri is a high-point view of urban Bhavnagar. Seating here, you can see entire market on three sides of the lake, lake lightings at night, and watch great fast food being cooked on the forth side - that smell of onions(pavbhaji and bhel) makes you hungry again and again. Seniors mostly gather here past 6, and children also play their way up and down. Doves frequent the peak point quite often, and the place is quite photogenic around Sunset time. Tea is always at stone's throw, and dilly-dallying citizens of Bhavnagar shopping around is a great feeling to devour. Bhavnagar [total area 9980.9 sq km] is the sixth largest city of Gujarat. It is located on Western coast of Gulf of Cambay in the peninsula of Saurashtra. Princely state Bhavnagar was founded in 1724 by Bhavsinhji Gohil in 1948 was FIRST state to merge in the Indian Union. “Ganga Deri” is a memorial palace it is situated in the centre of the Bhavnagar city of Gujarat, and that was designed by Sir John Griffith [principal of Sir J J School of Arts, Bombay]. Gangajalia (1893 AD) is a temple dedicated to “Gangadevi”, with a “ chhatri”, pavilion and bridge all in white marble. It has very good carvings and is an architectural master piece. It is a two storied structure which reminds one elements of Taj Mahal. This place is very good and can be included in the tour to Bhavnagar. It is not much popular point. Also needs to be maintained properly
Very good palace
