About Vadodara

Vadodara or Baroda, about 110 KMs from Ahmedabad, is located on the banks of Vishwamitri River. It is the third largest city in Gujarat and is considered as the culture capital of Gujarat. With its rich and varied cultural history, it is truly a city worth exploring for someone who's keen on history. Vadodara is known to have the most vibrant Navratri celebrations, where the whole city comes alive to sway on the beat of drums to perform the traditional garba folk dance.

Vadodara has several industries and attracts people from all over India to make it their home, which makes it a truly cosmopolitan city. There are lots of historical monuments, including palaces and museums for history lovers and people of all things culture.
