About 130 km north-west of
Ahmedabad, Patan was an ancient Hindu capital before it was sacked by
Mahmud of Ghazni in 1024. Patan has more than 100 Jain temples and is
famous for it's beautifully designed patola silk sarees. There's also the
renovated Rani-ki-Vav, a step-well which boasts some of Gujarat's finest
carvings. It is very impressive and certainly a must see place. |
