temple of Dwarkadhish are some of the places sacred to the Hindus.

period and they are better preserved than the temples of Mount Abu, Girnar and Shatrunjay.
Palitana, is Indias principal Jain pilgrimage site housing temples antedating 5th century.

ISLAM
Through the sea-route, which was open for trade, the people from Iran and Arabic countries
started coming to Gujarat. The trade system was established and the Indo-Islamic culture
flourished. The famous mosques are built during Mughal times. These include Sidi Sayyids
mosque, Jami Masjid, of Ahmedabad , Alif Khans Mosque in Dholka, Jama Masjid of
Bharuch, etc.
BUDDHISM

also and the remains of the same are found all over Gujarat. Ashokan Buddhist edicts
engraved on a rock, dating back to 3rd century BC, are near Junagadh.

Religion of Italy tourism:-

A Christian country
Italy - Culture

Italy is a Christian country, some 88 per cent of the population belonging to the
Roman Catholic church, although only around a third of these regard themselves as
active in religious terms.
The majority of the worlds religious and philosophical movements have churches or
meeting places in the major cities and resort areas, including the Anglican and
American churches.
Other religious groups in Italy include over 1m Muslims, 700,000 Eastern Orthodox
Christians, 550,000 evangelical Protestants, 235,000 Jehovahs Witnesses, 45,000
Jews, and the Waldensian Evangelical Church and other small groups such as SwissProtestant Baptists in Piedmont, plus a number of Eastern Orthodox Albanian

communities in the Mezzogiorno. Although the right to freedom of worship is

guaranteed under the Italian constitution, some extreme sects are prohibited.
The Vatican

The Vatican is the home of the government of the Roman Catholic

Church and of the Pope ( il Papa or Supreme Pontiff), the spiritual
leader of the worlds Roman Catholics. As well as its own
peacekeeping force, the Swiss Guard, the Vatican has its own post
office, newspaper and radio and TV stations. It also mints coins (with
the Popes face) and issues stamps

The Catholic church enjoys considerable influence, partly by virtue

of a historical tradition that has seen the Church of Rome as a
constant in government and the organisation of public life. There
have traditionally been close relations between the state and the
Catholic Church, which remains at the centre of Italian society and
political power.

Wealth of Italy tourism:

Gujarat Tourism refers to the Tourism in Gujarat, the seventh largest state
in India, located in the western part of India with a coastline of 1600 km
(longest in India). It is one of the most popular state in the country for tourists
with annual footfall of 19.81 million tourists in 201011.[7] Gujarat offers
scenic beauty from Great Rann of Kutch to the hills ofSaputara. Gujarat is the
sole home of the pure Asiatic lions in world.[8] During the Sultanate reign,
Hindu craftsmanship mix with Islamic architecture, giving rise to the IndoSaracenic style. Many structures in the state are built in this fashion. It is also
the birthplace of Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the great
iconic figures during India's Independence movement. Amitabh Bachchan is
currently the brand ambassador of Gujarat Tourism. Khushboo Gujarat Ki'
campaign by Amitabh Bachchan has grown tourism in Gujarat by 14 per cent,
twice that of national growth rate.

Kutch:

In the 21st century, most people travel by land in fast-moving buses or trains,
and to reach destinations further away, many even travel in airplanes.
Sometimes it is hard to remember that until the mid-1800s, overland travel
was done by horse or bullock-cart. That human technological flight began only
a century ago, and flying only became available to average travellers in the
last 50 years. Until the middle of the 20th century, for the several millennia of

human history that came before us, people voyaged on the seas. How many of
us today have traveled on the open ocean?
If you don't feel ready to embark on a seabound voyage anytime soon, visiting
a historical port town may at least bring you closer to understanding the way
people and goods used to move around the planet (and 95% of world trade still
does!). Here in Mandvi, the principal port of Kutch and of Gujarat for
hundreds of years until the rise of Mumbai, visit the shipbuilding yards along
the Rukmavati River where wooden ships are still built by hand. Stand at the
Tower of Wagers, where wealthy shipowners would gather in May to scan the
horizons, awaiting the return of the trading fleet from East Africa, and bet on
whose would arrive first. Wander around the Vijay Vilas Palace and marvel at
the items brought from far-off ports, and the architecture itself that shows a
global awareness in its mixture of styles. Or recreate your favorite scene from
Lagaan or Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, both of which have scenes filmed at the
palace.
Try Mandvi's famous local double rotis, also known as dabeli. Or, if you
simply want a place sit at the ocean, let the salty breeze wash over you, and
swim in the warm waters of the Arabian Sea, Mandvi's several quiet, clean
beaches with flamingos and other migrant birds will surely do the trick.

Background

Mandvi was founded as a port town by the Khengarji, the king of Kutch, in 1574. The
first temple to be built was the Sundarwar temple, followed by the Jama Masjid in
1603, the Lakshminarayan Temple in 1607, the Kajivali Mosque in 1608 and the
Rameshwar Temple in 1627. For all of this to have been built in the first 50 years of
the towns existence is a clear indicator of its importance to the kingdom. Indeed, at its
peak, Mandvi's wealth easily surpassed that of the capital at Bhuj, and it was only
after ships grew too large for its harbor and began to prefer Mumbai that Mandvi
started fading from the scene.
For 400 years, the shipbuilding industry has been the center of life in Mandvi. It was
once the principal port of Kutch and of Gujarat. At its peak, exports were said to
outnumber imports fourfold, and their revenue reflected that. Ships came and went
from East Africa, the Persian Gulf, the Malabar Coast (now called Kerala, in south
India), and South-East Asia. During Rao Godiji's reign in the 1760's, he built and
maintained a fleet of 400 ships, one that sailed as far as England and returned. The
city used to have 8 m. fortified walls around it, but only small portions remain.
In 1929 the Vijay Vilas palace was built by Rao Vijayrajji, and is maintained in
excellent condition today. The British Political Agent based in Bhuj had summer
quarters at Mandvi, and the British cemetery attests to the extended presence of the
British in the area.
As ships grew larger and Mumbai became an ever-more-powerful center of
commerce, fewer and fewer vessels would moor at Mandvi, preferring Mumbai or
Surat. Today, with a harbor far too small for modern supersized shipping operations, it
is no longer a major shipping port, but shipbuilding is still done by hand on the banks
of the Rukmavati River.

How to go:

By road: ST buses and jeeps depart from Bhuj about every 30 min. from the central
transportation area. For local excursions, jeeps can be hired in town.

Wealth of Gujarat tourism:

Gujarat rich in crafts, history and natural beauty, the remarkable coastal state of Gujarat --- the
home state of Mahatma Gandhi --- continues to attract artists, scholars, the intellectual elite and
businessmen from the world over. Amongst a tantalizing wealth of appealing possibilities which
facet, which area does one begin exploring first ?. Ahmedabad, its busiest city, perhaps, which
blends and reflects the chequered past, the vibrant present and a hopeful future.
In the old walled city of Ahmedabad are monuments and narrow, teeming bylanes which still
successfully keep alive an ancient, precious heritage. Punctuating the skyline, are the tall factory
chimneys of more than 60 textiles mills which rely on sophisticated technology. Many of the most
renowned names in the textile industry can be found at Ahmedabad.
Ahemdabad was established on the left bank of the river Sabarmati river in 1063 - 1093 A.D. by
King Karna Solanki. Later, Sultan Ahmad Shah, the founder of the Ahmadshahi Dynasty in Gujarat,
pitched camp on the banks of the Sabarmati and was so influenced by the site that he decided to
develope it into his capital. The city that began to take shape was thus named Ahmedabad after its
founder
The majority of even the earliest monuments that date back to 1411 A.D. --- the year Ahmedabad
was so christened are replete with ancient flavours intermingling with the hustle and bustle of
modern day life. The spurt of architectural activity that began roughly from the period of Ahmad
Shah was sustained and often embellished by successive rulers.
