Tourism in Ahmedabad

Welcome to Ahmedabad: Heart of Gujarat

Ahmedabad, often referred to as the heart of Gujarat, is a city that seamlessly blends its rich cultural heritage with modern infrastructure. As the first city in India to be inscribed in UNESCO’s World Heritage City list in 2017, Ahmedabad offers a unique experience that combines an exploration of its history with the opportunity to savour its contemporary delights.

Cultural and Historical Architecture
Ahmedabad boasts of an impressive array of heritage sites reflecting its rich cultural past. The Sidi Saiyyed Mosque, known for its exquisite and intricately carved stone latticework windows (jali), is a prime example of Islamic architecture. The famous 'tree of life' motif carved into the jali is a must-see. Another architectural marvel is the Adalaj Stepwell, built in the 15th century. This stepwell showcases a beautiful fusion of Indo-Islamic architecture with intricate carvings on its pillars and a natural cooling system that keeps the water six degrees cooler than the prevalent temperature. The city's heritage precincts of Pols and traditional clusters from the medieval period offer a glimpse into Ahmedabad’s historical narrative, making it a haven for history enthusiasts.

Mughal Architectural Influence
Several areas in Ahmedabad, such as Laal-Darwaja, Ratan-Pod, and the vicinity of Relief Road, exhibit a strong Mughal architectural influence. These neighbourhoods are perfect locations for a leisurely stroll to appreciate the historical essence of Ahmedabad and the distinct charm of Mughal-era constructions that still stand tall in the city.

Modern Infrastructure
Ahmedabad is not just about the past; it is also a city that also provides a glimpse into the future. The Sabarmati Riverfront and Atal Bridge are modern projects that not only offer scenic views but are also ideal places for enjoying a relaxing walk along the river. The Sindhu Bhavan and Satellite areas, home to numerous corporations and multinational companies, reflect the city's rapid economic growth, juxtaposed in stark contrast to its traditional roots. Ahmedabad is also known as a paradise for food lovers, offering a diverse range of cuisines. For a taste of local specialties, Manek Chowk is the place to be. This bustling night market on Sindhu Bhavan Marg offers a variety of street food and traditional dishes, ensuring a delightful culinary experience. Additionally, the city boasts of a variety of international multi-cuisine restaurants that cater to every palate, making Ahmedabad a foodie's haven.
