National Salt Satyagraha Memorial

Reviewed By VNM2014 - Houston, United States

Anyone interested in visiting historical places in India (whether they are Indian or foreign visitors) should visit this newly created monument to the salt satyagraha (Gandhi's first major initiative that was a watershed moment in India's history). The design of the memorial by IIT Mumbai is excellent. The statues are wonderful. However, to reach this place, one has to travel through Navasari, an old, dirty, dilapidated town with congested streets. At the memorial, there are no restaurants. If the Government does not organize support services, people will still come and eventually, there will be shanties all over providing unreliable food and water. This is a great place to visit but hopefully, in the near future, road access and support facilities will improve.

Shyamji Krishna Varma Smarak

Reviewed By KCA_HYD - Hyderabad, India

The Memorial’s objective is to pay tribute to the contribution of Shyamji Krishna Varma and also to educate the young generation about those great Indians who sacrificed everything for the country’s freedom. I must say that under the leadership of then CM, Narendrbhai Modi did a remarkable job.

Nilkanth Dham Swaminarayan Temple

Reviewed By drmsp2 - Vadodara, India

Spread over a vast campus, this is a marvelous temple created by Rajkot Swaminarayan Gurukul Sansthan, well known for its Social and Charity activities during natural calamities, and also supporting needy students for Educational pursuits. Cleanliness and systematic Parking arrangements, as well as trees and flower plants all over he entire temple complex are eye catching. Children Park serves good entertainment for kids. Tea, coffee, snacks and food can be availed by procuring requisite coupons in advance from the windows opposite to parking area. The big pond surrounding the main temple contains crystal clear water - so much clear that all coins thrown into the pond by stupid public are visible. Some currency notes floating on water spoiled the beauty of this pond, but this is the way!

Statue Of Unity

Temporarily Closed

Reviewed By Malu-Traveler - Mumbai, India

Wonderful Experience and really wonderfully built monument of Sardar Patel.. Modi has really built good ecosystem.. Some suggestions 0) Buy all passes online before you start. There is nothing sold at the location. If you dont have pass, dont go. Try to take the evening slot if possible. 1) Stay at Vadodara and drive around 9 am and reach SOU in 2 hrs. Suggest to eat before getting inside SOU.. hydrate yourself properly. 2) You reach around main reception and a SOU AC bus takes to you the main location 3) If you have Express Pass, then you have advantage at all places.. Dont see stand in line at lot of places. But otherwise normal pass is good. 4) Dont go directly to the main Statue if your timing is in evening. Visit all other locations first. V.V.imp 5) In the end come to the main statue location. Come around 4.30 or 5pm and then go the statue. 7) The statue auditorium is very good.. Video show is good. 8) Visit the statue and use the lifts... 9) Then go and sit around the lake view to see the laser show 10) If you have seen the Video in auditorium, the laser show is not necessary. But atleast watch for first 10 minutes 11) The worst part is disbursal after laser show is biggest scene. Its like 10000 people descended to catch the bus. The idea is to ask your car driver to come inside and pick you up. Hope this all of you !!!

Sarkhej Roja

Reviewed By 954triciah - Brisbane, Australia

Despite visiting Ahmedabad on numerous occasions I had yet to make it to the Sarkhej Roza. I was finally able to visit early last year. A fascinating mix of Islamic, Indo-Saracen and Hindu architectural influences, Sarkhej Roza is a must do for history and architecture lovers. It is also a drop of calmness in the bustle of Ahmedabad which adds to its charm, although we went in the late afternoon when it was probably a bit quieter.
