Visit of 17th January 2016

it was Sunday. Sunday was a holiday and we went at Memdavad and Nadiyad places for visiting different monuments as well as making trip as picnic. It is for your information that the city of AHMEDABAD AND MEHMDAVAD ARE ABOUT 600 YEARS OLD. About morning nine o'clock we had left our home and our places are as mentioned:
  • Sidhivinayak temple, Memdavad
there are few ancient sculpture of lord ganesha and two of the same are from the different country one is AFGHANISTAN AND second is from CAMBODIA. Both are in standing form ie in Indian tendency lord ganesh are mostly setting as we make his WELCOME / AHAVAHAN, but these are in standing form... which i like most and attractive mode personally, as very rare we can find these things which are coming from ancient history or ancient sculpture....

  • Bhammariya kuvo / well, Memdavad

Bhammariyo Kuvo

This is an ancient well with seven floors (stories) below the ground. Each floor has a different architecture. Currently floors four to seven of the well are filled so visitors are only able to view the top three floors.

A popular myth about the well is that Mahmud Begada built a swing in this well with water level up to his neck to reduce the heat he continuously felt because of side effects of a daily dose of toxin which his mother gave him in small amounts to immunize him from any attempts to poison him by enemies. 

There are three basement and each has separately long road which are as under
one is going PAWAGADHA, kali mata temple, BARODA DISTRICT, from memdavad...
second one is going JETPUR, from memdavad and 
third one is going BHADRAKALI TEMPLE, AHMEDABAD CITY  from memdavad....

  • Roza rozi mazar / dargah, Kheda district place

Roza Rozi



Roza Rozi is a Maqbara ( Dargah Sarif of Mubarak Said,R.A.) located near Ghodali village with distance of 3 km from Mahemdavad. Roza Rozi is a holy place for Muslims so there is a fair on Uras (Festival of Muslims). Every year the uras celebrating after the 10 day of Eid-Ul-fitra with lots of Joy.
The myth about Roza Rozi is that we cannot count the pillars of the building. Every time we count it gives different figure. We confuse while counting because of its architectural design.
The whole monument is base on the total 66 pillar structure and main thing is that at a one stroke you could not count it right and the same is due to the special architect structure mode. you can watch the video and justifying better then me....the same is on the bank of river VATRAK....
