Mahatama Gandhi, who spent 12 days at Kausani in 1929, was inspired by the panoramic majesty of this abundantly bestowed location to produce his remarkable commentary on the Geeta-Ana-Sakti yoga. The Mahatama's guest home is currently known as Anasakti Ashram. Sumitranandan Pant, a Hindi poet laureate, was born in Kausani. Some of his early poetry written here described nature in all of its forms. There is a modest museum to commemorate that hallowed site. Kausani is suitable for individuals who want to enjoy a tranquil holiday in the lap of nature, away from the clamour and dust, rush and bustle of big towns. Indeed, Kausani is a true paradise of beauty that must be visited when in Kumaun.
