GUJARAT NA STHAPATYO By Govt. Of Gujarat
Aavo Padharo, words of
welcome in the language of Gujarat because it is here that these words ring
truly and the guest is 'God' and the people of Gujarat are gregariously
friendly, inviting and will entice you to come again and again.
Stretches out into the Arabian Sea, with a hint
of the desert and with a coastline of 1666 km long is Gujarat – the home state
of Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of Nation. It is renowned for its beaches, temple
towns and historic capitals. Wildlife sanctuaries, hill resorts and natural
grandeur are gifts of Gujarat. Sculpture, handicrafts, arts, festivals also
make the state rich. Gujarat is also among the most technologically advanced,
housing the largest petrochemical complex in the country.
Gujarat has always been a major centre
for the Jains and some of its most interesting locations are the Jain Temple
centres at Palitana and Girnar Hills. Besides the Jain temples, the state’s
major attractions include the only habitat of the Asiatic Lions in India (Gir
Forests), a desert ride at the Wild Ass Sanctuary and the beautiful
Indo-Saracenic Architecture of Ahmedabad. The colourful tribal villages of
Kutch make a visit unforgettable.
A state with an amazingly
varied topography ranging from the deep green of the dense forests to stark
white at the salt plains. Its 1660 kilometers coastline is home to some of the
most unique marine species and geographical locations at the state makes it an
ideal matrix, a melting pot of a vast variety of culture, people, places and
history due to eons of migratory influences. Along with all the migrations came
in various ritual practices, cuisines, style of dresses, fairs and festivals,
celebrations all of which were amalgamated and became a part of what this
amazingly diverse state has to offer to you. This was possible as a result of
trade, commerce and the dexterity of the people of Gujarat to accept and take
in and make a part of all who come in here for succour, conquest or trade.
