Cellular Jail

The Cellular Jail, i.e. Kala Pani, at Port Blair, Andaman, is one such historic site that makes your heart happy as soon as you get inside.

🔒 The story of history is in these devaras

The construction of Cellular Jail started in 1896 and ended in 1906. The British government had designed this jail in such a way that every cell was separate so that the prisoners could not talk to each other. This is why it was named “Cellular Jail”.

Veer Savarkar, Batukeshwar Dutt and countless other freedom fighters were detained and tortured here. Within this jail, India’s dreamers of an independent India resided.

🎧 Light and Sound Show – An Emotion That Can Be Felt

There is a Light and Sound Show every evening in Cellular Jail, where you experience the jail in a new light. The whole atmosphere of the show becomes so emotional through the voices of old times, background music and impactful narration that every visitor gets tears in his eyes.

This show is displayed in Hindi as well as English languages. This show tells you how the prisoners in this jail committed hunger strikes, how they were physically tortured and how they sacrificed themselves without ever losing their urine.

🤔 Why is it necessary to come here?

In the midst of all the popular beaches, islands and water sports of Andaman, Cellular Jail is such a place which gives you an inner connection. This reminds you that behind the freedom we are enjoying, there is so much sacrifice and yearning hidden.

This place is a learning point for students, history lovers and every Indian who wants to experience his history.

Learn about India’s freedom struggle
Walk through the eerie but moving corridors

A visit here will touch your heart and give depth to your trip. It’s one of the most meaningful things to do in Andaman.

Book inter-island ferries in advance (Makruzz or Green Ocean). Trust me, this is one of the most exciting things to do in Andaman.

Locals call it the ‘Sunset Point’ for a reason. Chidiya Tapu is a short drive from Port Blair and trust me, the views are spectacular.

Ideal for couples, families, and solo travellers
Carry a mat and some snacks

One of the most romantic things to do in Andaman, hands down.
