Reviewed By SBahl - New Delhi, India

Lukshmi Vilas Palace, the largest private residence in India, is grand, awe-inspiring, and beautiful. The architecture is a fantastic exposition of Indo-Saracenic architecture; the grounds and carved-out sections like the golf course immaculate; and the collection of art and artefacts exquisite, even by royal standards. A special call out to the collection of Raja Ravi Varma's works, which is the largest at any single place. And another one to the armoury, which has a the best collection of swords I have seen. The museum has audio guides, which makes the experience of visiting the palace much richer. Essential visit while in Baroda. Keep 2-3 hours aside for it.

We visited the ISKCON temple on Diwali day to seek blessings of the almighty. The temple was beautifully decorated with lamps and there was a lovely Rangoli at the entrance. All the idols of the lord - Shri Radha Krishna, Shri Jagannath,Balram & Subhadra devi were beautifully decorated. The mahaprasad was awesome. They also have a lovely restaurant called Govinda where one can have superb vegetarian food. Must visit place for one and all !!!

EME Temple

Reviewed By 494sunilt - Ahmedabad, India

This temple is located in cantonment area like Hanuman Temple of Ahmedabad. The vehicle has to be parked outside and one needs to walk 200-300 meters to reach the temple. Id card has to be submitted at the gate. The walk is in the peaceful and serene cantonment area which is a great experience. It's open till 8 PM. Its a must visit place of Vadodara.
