Ahmedabad

Ahmedabad is known for its incredible buildings, from the Hutheesing Jain Temple to the Sidi Sayde Mosque. It’s also the best place for jewelry shopping as the craftsmen of Ahmedabad are famous for their silverwork. Festivals take place throughout the year in the city, too.

The peak travel in Ahmedabad is December to February as it is the mildest season in terms of heat and also has the fewest chances of rainfall. Some notable events include the International Kite Festival in January, Navratri or “Nine Nights” in September or October, and Diwali in October or November.

One of the best areas to stay in Ahmedabad is the riverside Ellisbridge on the western part of the city. It offers both budget and luxury accommodations and is also known for its green spaces; there are nearby food stalls that dish up taste-worthy Gujarati snacks as well. Another good option is Paldi as it is near bus stops and most of the tourist places are nearby. Small temples also dot the area.
