Reviewed By SBahl - New Delhi, India

Lukshmi Vilas Palace, the largest private residence in India, is grand, awe-inspiring, and beautiful. The architecture is a fantastic exposition of Indo-Saracenic architecture; the grounds and carved-out sections like the golf course immaculate; and the collection of art and artefacts exquisite, even by royal standards. A special call out to the collection of Raja Ravi Varma's works, which is the largest at any single place. And another one to the armoury, which has a the best collection of swords I have seen. The museum has audio guides, which makes the experience of visiting the palace much richer. Essential visit while in Baroda. Keep 2-3 hours aside for it.

We visited the ISKCON temple on Diwali day to seek blessings of the almighty. The temple was beautifully decorated with lamps and there was a lovely Rangoli at the entrance. All the idols of the lord - Shri Radha Krishna, Shri Jagannath,Balram & Subhadra devi were beautifully decorated. The mahaprasad was awesome.

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!
