Top 4 experiences in Ahmedabad you shouldn't miss!

When you plan on an outing or a vacation, Ahmedabad might not be among the places that instantly strikes your mind. But that’s where you’re making a mistake. Let me show you everything you’re missing out on by not visiting the largest city of Gujarat.

Sabarmati Ashram:

The Sabarmati Ashram, located at the banks of River Sabarmati, is one of the 1st few places Gandhiji stayed amidst the freedom struggle. He used the ashram as a place to experiment with the natural lifestyle, which he later coined as swadeshi. Here, he indulged in several activities like farming, cattle-rearing, animal husbandry, khadi and more. This is a must-visit site of heritage where you can take a walk down the history lane and witness ancient India. There is a museum tributed to Gandhiji as part of the ashram which is a splendid place to inculcate knowledge about the colonial period, the lifestyle then, and contributions of the father of our nation.

Shaking Minarets:

The ‘Jhulta Minara Sidi Bashir mosque’ also known as the ‘Shaking Minarets’ is a 3-story ancient architecture with majestic constructions and admirable carvings. It is said that the minarets were originally constructed as a protection mechanism for the mosque. Apparently, after the war between the Marathas and the Khan of Gujarat Sultanate in 1753, a huge part of the mosque was destroyed leaving only the arched Central Gateway and two Minarets. But the attention received by this site is not attributed to its prehistoric traits but because of the Minarets itself. When either of the minarets receives a gentle shake the other minaret shakes automatically for a few seconds. The reason behind this observation still remains a mystery to all, which makes it even more fascinating to witness.

Local cuisine:

Ahmedabad is no short of scrumptious local delicacies from dhokla, khakhra, kulfi, momos to Paani poori, and dal vada. You should definitely check out these amazing food outlets to experience the actual taste of Ahmedabad. They’re simply delish!


Manek Chowk - Try the mouth-watering parathas, Methi Na Gota, and their special chocolate sandwich. Trust me it’s such a wholesome experience!


Baghdad Fry Centre - Fan of Non-veg food? You should definitely eat at this outlet for their finger-licking kheema chops, chicken Amreen and the very famous Kharode soup.


Agahshiye - This is a more sophisticated restaurant located on the rooftop of ‘The House of MG’, where you can get traditional Gujarati food and appetizing thalis.

Law Garden Night Market:

No trip is complete without shopping and ‘Law Garden Night market’ is your perfect destination for purchases. From sparkling jewelry, cholis with grand embroidery and painstakingly minute stone works, footwear, accessories to silverware and other household items what can you not find here. Best yet, the cost of everything here is amazingly cheap. After shopping, you can even taste-test the food trucks and experience the local delicacies here. The garden and playground at the end of the market are simply magnificent if you just want to steal a stroll enjoying the wind and night sky finally, wrapping up your day.


Ahmedabad is such an incredible place complexly intertwined with culture and heritage. This amazing place is best explored when you stay for a day or more to experience its variety and make the best out of your trip. Check out the best place to stay in Ahmedabad!
