This factory transforms scraps of waste cotton into paper, which was one of the cottage industries introduced by Gandhi. No chemicals are used in the process and it's interesting to watch how the paper is created. There's no official tour guide, but someone will likely show you around. You can purchase excellent paper products in the gift shop. It's opposite Morarji Desai park.
