Nearby sights and food

Narendra Modi Stadium at Motera is the closest major sight. It is the world's largest cricket stadium by capacity. Dada Harir stepwell from 1499 is a short drive north. Sabarmati Ashram, where Gandhi lived from 1917 to 1930, lies south along the river. The Calico Museum of Textiles in Shahibaug requires a pre-booked guided tour.

A day from Kings Residency
