Jallianwala Bagh is the memorial garden at the site of the 1919 massacre where British troops under General Dyer opened fire on a peaceful gathering of thousands, killing an estimated 1,000+ men, women, and children in just 10 minutes. The narrow entrance through which panicked crowds tried to escape, the bullet-marked walls still bearing scars, and the Martyrs' Well into which many jumped to escape the bullets are chilling remnants. The memorial, renovated in 2021 with a museum and light-and-sound show, serves as a powerful reminder of the human cost of colonial rule and a turning point that galvanized India's independence movement.
What makes this place special
The original brick walls still bear the marks of hundreds of bullets fired by General Dyer's troops — each hole a silent testament to the horror of April 13, 1919.

During the massacre, over 120 people jumped into this well trying to escape the bullets. A glass cover now allows visitors to look down into the well, which serves as a mass grave.
The renovated museum uses artifacts, photographs, newspaper clippings, and interactive displays to tell the full story of the massacre and its role in India's freedom movement.
