✅

pip install django It will install into global and in any directory django-admin.py startproject to create your Django project.

So after installing django you can import django from the python shell 

Python 2.7.6 (default, Mar 22 2014, 22:59:56) 
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import django
>>>

So as @Filly suggested use virtualenv is best for working with django and installing packages

pip install virtualenv==1.11.6

after installing try below commands

virtualenv source/bin/activate

And after you are in virtual environment. Here you can install any packages Django or whatever it ll lie in environment only.

Django can work without virtual env in ubuntu

install django

sudo pip install django==1.7 
or 
Sudo pip install django==1.8

The path of django installation module repo

python -c "import sys; sys.path = sys.path[1:]; import django;
print(django.__path__)"

Now goto terminal 

$ python


>>> import django
>>> django.VERSION

Now start a django project

  1. sudo django-admin startproject project_name
  2. cd project_name
  3. python manage.py runserver or python manage.py runserver 8008
  4. Goto browser –> localhost:8000 (8000 is default port)
