Gujarat Tourism
The most convenient entry point into Gujarat is through the metropolis of
Ahmedabad. The city contains some very fine museums, the Calico Museum
of Textiles being considered among the worlds finest.
Ahmedabads walled city is a living testimony to its heritage of crafts
as women walk by in dazzling embroidered garments and flashing ethnic silver
jewellery.
Traditional Ahmedabad combines mosques of inspired workmanship, wooden Jain
temples, unique stone stepwells and houses with ornately carved wooden balconies
and window screens.
Modern Ahmedabad, just across the River Sabarmati spanned by four bridges,
is a showpiece of contemporary architecture with designs by Le Corbusier,
Louis Kahn and the best known Indian architects.
Ahmedabad is a convenient base for a number of excursions, Modhera being
the best known. 106 km away, this is one of the very few sun temples in
the country.
Gujarats loveliest beach - and the state is well endowed with
them - is Ahmedpur Mandvi whose chief attraction is the ethnic beach
resort.
