The Cellular Jail, also known as “Kala Pani,” is a historic landmark in Port Blair that stands as a testament to India’s struggle for independence. Built by the British in the late 19th century, this prison once held prominent freedom fighters under harsh conditions. The structure features small, isolated cells designed to break the spirit of inmates. Today, it serves as a national memorial with a museum showcasing the horrors of colonial rule.

A must-see attraction is the Light and Sound Show, which narrates the history of the jail and its prisoners. The site is popular among Nepali tourists who are interested in colonial history and India’s independence movement.

Many travel agencies offer guided trips that include a visit to the museum, jail tour, and the famous evening show, making it a key stop in Andaman itineraries.
