My long standing desire to visit the Sun Temple at Modhera, some 90 kms from Ahmedabad got fulfilled recently. The drive from Ahmedabad to Modhera is comfortable.
Surya was an important god of the Hindu Pantheon during the Vedic times. Built around 1026 by the Chalukyan King Bhima-I the Modhera Sun Temple predates the more famous Konark Sun temple by almost 125 years. It's amazing that two magnificent Sun temples were built thousands of miles apart one on the west coast and another on east coast!!
The Modhera Sun Temple has two mandaps with intricate carvings both inside on the columns, pillars & ceiling and also on the outside. There are many images of Surya dev. The other gods depicted are Agni, Varun, Kuber, Ganesh etc. There are two exquisitely carved pillars infront of the assembly hall. What is unique about this temple is the presence of a huge tank known as Surya kund with steps & small shrines all around it.

A place which is very holy and from the many years it is famous and people come from all over India. the famous Garba song is also dedicated to this place.
Dont forget to njoy prasad (Lunch) which is very good and pure and it cost just Rs.33/Plate and which is unlimited and i would say thanks to becharaji trust for providing such facility.

This is considered equivalent to GAYA when it comes to praying for soul of the departed especially mothers. The procedires here makes you remember the departed family members but even friends. For a brief moment we recalled the names of long lost cousins whom I had not even personally seen. The place is not crowded and the priests are not greedy. The prayers are conducted in a professional manner. Nice place to visit too even if you do not need to pray for anyone.

Visited this holy place on20.10.2015. Now a major renovation is going on here with help of Rs.18 Crores from Govt of Gujarat. The temple of Shree Hatkeshver Mahadev(Lord Shiva) is situated in the town of Vadnagar in Gujarat. This temple is said to be around 1800 years old. It is said that the Linga of Shree Hatkeshver Mahadev goes till the bottom of the earth. Here there are some subsidiary small temples of Lord Shiva also. Lord Hatkeshver is 'Ishta Dev' of the people of 'Nagar-Brahmin'caste of Hindu religion. The temple is a national heritage having artistic carvings in-side and out-side the temple.A must visit temple for devotee of Lord Shiva.

An imposing yellow building the House of Patola showcases the weaving of the famous Patola saree that is a speciality of the Patan region. There are exhibits of celebrities donning this hand made fabric reportedly very very expensive and it takes six months to complete weaving a saree. The weavers originally came from Maharashtra some 1000 years back and settled down here continuing with their art passing it from generation to another.

This temple's Diety is worshipped by Modh Community people besides other devotees. This Diety actually is in the well inside the temple, but another Idol is installed for worshipping .
Also bhojanalaya is there inside the temple complex where people can have a meal for Rs 30/- only.
Vast area surrounding the temple where mass marriage ceremonies are held

This review is more to avoid a safai trip in Temple's name.
Usually local taxi drivers will suggest you for the safari in the name of this temple mainly as you wouldn't have got the online permit. Temple is good but dont fall in trap for a safari including this temple.

Patan is very old and historical city in Gujarat. Here we have visited a nice lake named Sahasrtaling Talalab. It was made by king Siddharaj Jaisinh. Its named derived from numerous linga in temples on bank. We become very happy to see this great lake as it shows sense of water management un old time. Must visit thia old lake. This is a good place for history lover.
