How To Reach Sarod Ghar

Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India
Founding and Vision: Sarod Ghar, officially known as the Ustad Hafiz Ali Khan Memorial Trust, is a unique museum dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Indian classical music. It was established in the 1990s by the legendary Sarod maestro Ustad Amjad Ali Khan in the memory of his father and guru, Ustad Hafiz Ali Khan. Crucially, the museum is housed in the family’s own ancestral home in Gwalior, a city that is the birthplace of the Gwalior Gharana (School) of Hindustani classical music and the tradition of the Senia Bangash lineage of Sarod players. The establishment’s primary aim is to create an archive of instruments, documents, and recordings related to the history and evolution of Indian classical music. It serves as a vital resource for scholars, musicians, and enthusiasts. The exhibits feature rare and ancient musical instruments, some belonging to the ancestors of Ustad Amjad Ali Khan (like the Rabab and early Sarods), as well as instruments donated by other great masters of Indian music, representing a tangible link to India’s rich sonic heritage.:

How to Reach

By Air: Gwalior Airport (GWL) is approximately 10 KMS away. A pre-paid taxi or cab is the most direct way to reach the museum, with a journey time of around 30 minutes.

By Train: Gwalior Junction Railway Station (GWL) is the closest major transit point, located only about 4-5 KMS from the Sarod Ghar in Jiwaji Ganj. The museum's location on Haafiz Ali Khan Marg is a known landmark, making the ride short and inexpensive (15-20 minutes).

By Road (Bus/Car): The museum is centrally located and easily accessible by city buses, private cars, and taxis. The surrounding streets can be narrow, so a smaller vehicle like an auto-rickshaw or a local cab is often more convenient for a direct drop-off. Parking in the immediate vicinity might be difficult.

By Local Transport (Auto/Taxi): Auto-rickshaws are the most common local transport option. Tell the driver you are going to "Sarod Ghar" or "Hafiz Ali Khan ki Haveli" in Jiwaji Ganj. The fare will be minimal from the city center or railway station. It is conveniently situated near other attractions, allowing for easy planning of a local itinerary. :
