Best Experiences in Ahmedabad

February 03, 2025

🛫🛫🛫En route to Ahmedabad 🛫🛫🛫

I have traveled to Ahmedabad quite a few times, and to me, it feels like a better version of America in India. I love that I can find ISKCON-friendly food easily. Given the chance, I never miss an opportunity to visit the city. It's clean and pristine, well-connected by public transport, and offers affordable auto-rickshaws and taxis. Best of all, it is one of the safest places to explore.

𐂅𐂅Statue of unity𐂅𐂅

A grand tribute to the Iron Man of India- Honorable Sardar Vallabai Patel. It is gigantic, magnanimous and splendid. Being there gave a perspective that India that it is closed to developed nation. I felt it has the same standards like the statue of liberty and many more places like fauna/flora/gardens/dinosaur park etc. There is a huge dam to preserve water from Narmada river. A galore of information and history of this place can be seen. The place is maintained well from thrash, spectacularly clean, organized lines.
