Rani ki Vaav at Patan and Sun Temple at Modhera are both close to Ahmedabad and can be a great exploration for a day trip to some amazing history. Architecture of ancient #india is a visual art, and the buildings speak for themselves. The #sun #temple is one such beautiful #monument located at #modhera village in #gujarat .The temple halls have intricately carved exterior and pillars. The reservoir has steps to reach the bottom and numerous small shrines. Patan is famous for its #amazing history, #architecture (Rani ni Vav) and #artwork (Patan na Patola). Rani Ki Vav (Queen's Stepwell') has been listed as one of the UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. It has the finest and one of the uniquest architecture. It is designed as an inverted temple highlighting the sanctity of water, the stepwell is divided into seven levels of stairs with sculptural panels of deities, apsaras from various mythological stories. #patola is a double #ikat woven #sari usually made from #silk . They are very expensive, once worn only by those belonging to #royal and aristocratic families.
The Sun Temple at Modhera is very impressive. Highly recommended for tourists visiting Ahmedabad to include this in their itinerary. You can spend at least a couple of hours at this place.
