Ganga Deri

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

Nice place for relaxation. Only Rs 10 entry ticket

It was very good place to visit nd

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. Lake sorrounding area very Dirty. lake need to be cleaned on regular basis.

One of the best heritage places of Bhavnagar. Sadly not in good hands to maintain it properly. Everytime discussed to maintain and show to the public it's true nature, authority fails with half measured steps

Beautiful place. Its closed for visitors because of the pandemic, its scenic and peaceful.
