Lothal:
History dates back to Indus Valley Civilization which leave
behind the ruins of Lothal, the first Indian Port between 1800-2400 BC.
It also shows a very high degree of town planning, like other sites in
the Indus valley.
The discovery of seals at Lothal suggests that the former
civilization from this part of the Indian subcontinent traded frequently
with the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt and Persia. An
unusual discovery was made here of two bodies found in a single grave.
At least three such instances show that double burial was a common
feature among the people who lived in Lothal. More than 4000-year-old
seals of the Indus Valley and Sumerian civilizations, terracotta
artefacts, ancient beads and necklaces made from colourful semi-precious
stones, resembling modern day junk jewellery, among others is being
brought alive in the minds of the people by the Archeology survey of
India. Thus, Lothal is an emerging Tourist attraction in Gujarat. |

Vadnagar:
Vadnagar is famous for its torans and Hatkeshwar Temple.
Torans, a pair of 12th century columns supporting an arch, about
40 feet tall built in red and yellow sandstone, just north of the
walled town. They stand majestically on the bank of Sharmistha Talav, on
a road going down from Arjun Bari. They are among the few surviving
examples of the entrance gates, once a regular feature of the
architecture of Gujarat in Solanki period. The carving style is similar
to the Rudra Mahalaya at Sidhpur.
Perhaps erected after a war victory, the architecture is
embellished with carvings of battle and hunting scenes. The one to the
east is in better condition and has been used as a symbol of Gujarat in
recent times. The torans might have served as an entrance to a large
temple complex, but there are no remains found here.
The Hatkeshwar temple is a 17th Century carved temple at the
entrance of the town. The family deity of Nagar Brahmins, who were once a
prominent community in Vadnagar. The temple's inner sanctum houses a
Shiva linga said to have self-emerged (swayambhu). From the roof of the
sanctum a massive shikhar soars high into the sky. Facing east, the
temple is enclosed by a high wall topped by three circular domes
interspersed with flat stretches in the Indo-Saracenic tradition.The
exterior of the temple is exquisitely ornamented with figures of the
nine planets, musicians, evocative dancing apsaras, regent deities, the
chief gods of the Hindu pantheon, scenes from the Ramayana and
Mahabharata, and varied animal and floral motifs. The premises also have
