Akshardham Temple :
The Akshardham temple in the city is one of the biggest temples in India, and it is a major pilgrim destination that many people swarm to. This temple was built by the same organisation as the one in Delhi and is very much similar to it. Located in the capital of Gujarat, the complex took over 13 years to build in the honour of Swaminarayan and his life and teachings. Akshardham mandir is situated at the center of the 23-acre complex, which is built from 6,000 metric tonnes of pink sandstone from Rajasthan.
It acts as a cultural centre and is a melting pot that can enthral tourists from around the country.
