Hmmmm...... Still thinking? Well then this is the site you'd better be connected to, coz the city of Ahmedabad is this and lots more.

After all it’s the largest city and the erstwhile capital of Gujarat. This site is not a conventional sight seeing tour. It's much more. It is the rediscovery of the Ahmedabadi spirit. So if you happen to come across the word 'change' read it as 'Ahmedabad'. Maybe the adaptation to change is imbibed in the spirit of Ahmedabad from the very first time it was built. Right from the time of 27th February, 1411 when the Fort of Bhadra was built by King Ahmed Shah and Ahmedabad was established on 4th March 1411, to the remaking of C.G. Road in 1996, Ahmedabad has been silently revolutionising itself to the changes in the perception of each of its coming generations. As one of the famous legend goes

Jab kutte Pe Sassa Aaaya
Tab AhmedShah Badshah ne sahar Basaya.

When King Ahmed Shah was travelling in search of a place to establish his capital city he chanced to come near the banks of Sabarmati River. Here he was surprised to find a hare chasing a dog. This set him thinking about the unique combination of gentleness and bravery of the localities made him decide to shift his capital city from Patan to Ahmedabad. This is how Ahmedabad was established which today nurtures in its fold pages of history, a breath of harmony & a showcase of exquisite architecture.

The charm of Ahmedabad lies in its multicultural diversity, which is why a peep into the sightseeing places of Ahmedabad is a must so as to understand it better. Ahmedabad has a unique combination of religious places & historical sites which adds to the gaiety of this place and is the second largest prosperous city in Western India and a place where tradition and modernity coexist in perfect harmony.
