About Ahmedabad

Ahmedabad or Amdavad, as it’s called in Gujarati, is the commercial capital of the state of Gujarat in western India. Home to companies dealing in everything from electronics to pharmaceutical products to industrial goods, the mainstay of Ahmedabad’s economy is its textile industry. Often referred to as ‘Manchester of the East’, the city boasts of numerous textile factories set up along the Sabarmati River. Tourist attractions in Ahmedabad include the famous Sabarmati Ashram, Bhadra Fort, Sidi Saiyyed Mosque and the pristine Kankaria Lake. Also visit the famous Akshardham Temple, 30 km away in Gandhinagar, Gujarat’s capital city. With Gujarat being a dry state and alcohol consumption illegal, nightlife in Ahmedabad is non-existent; however do sample some local delicacies at roadside eateries. Shopping areas in Ahmedabad range from swanky new malls on CG Road to old crowded markets in Bapu Nagar, Ellisbridge and Lal Darwaja. For a close cultural experience, visit Ahmedabad during the Navratri and Kite festivals. MakeMyTrip.com is Ahmedabad’s leading tour operator and travel agent.
