AhmedabadOverview
One of the most important cities of Gujarat, Ahmedabad is where the old meets the new. This city of textile mills and industrial millionaires hides the gems of its glorious past, where beautiful mosques, carved havelis, ancient temples, and vibrant bazaars share the scene with steel-and-skyscraper facades. Ahmedabad’s beautiful architecture exemplifies the virtues of the Indo-Islamic style, and roaming the labyrinthine old city, visiting its atmospheric mosques, lets one appreciate it. There are over 50 mosques in Ahmedabad filled with extraordinary workmanship, most famous of these being the Juma Masjid and the Sidi Sayed Mosque. Famous must visit temples include the Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, Hathisingh Jain Temple, and the Akshardham Temple. There are also hundreds of old havelis containing exquisite woodwork, as well as some of the finest museums in India, including the Calico Textile Museum. Also visit Law Garden, Gandhi Road, and the National Handloom Emporium for some chic shopping. A splendid nearby getaway is Lothal, which has ruins from 2400 BC, and is 70 km from the city. Also visit the Sabarmati Ashram, Mahatma Gandhi’s headquarters during the struggle for independence.
