Ahmedabad is the city which relives history. The city is associated with the freedom struggle and has managed to retain its old world charm while evolving into a modern city. The Kohinoor amongst Indian cities, Ahemdabad envelops you into its vibrant folds- be it the allure of the traditional mirror work and the tie and dye prints or the ghamthi prints as the famous Law Garden hawkers would call it or in the glorious nine nights of Navratras (celebrated during October) or the famous Makar Sankranti festival (Kite flying festival held in January). The historic appeal is not lost on you as you run into a historic monument at every corner and you cannot escape the warm smile or the richness that engulfs you. So indulge in this old world charm that promises a mystique in the midst of a bustling city.

Travel Tips
Cotton clothes are the best to wear through the year in Ahmedabad. However, add a few light woolens if you are visiting in the winter season.
Gujarat is one of the few states where alcohol is prohibited. But this applies only to Indians. If you have a non-Indian passport, you can get an alcohol permit from the government that allows you to buy and consume alcohol legally.
A traditional Gujarati meal has endless courses. So it's best to first taste everything and then take more of what you like.
