Hello everyone, and welcome to my 44th blog post. I hope you're all doing well. Let's continue with our series on my city, Vadodara. Today, I want to share some lesser-known places with you. Whether you're from Vadodara or elsewhere, you might be surprised to learn that at one point, Vadodara had over 100 vavs (stepwells). Some of them are well-maintained and accessible even today. NAVLAKHI VAV Let's start with Navlakhi Vav, located in Laxmi Vilas Palace. It is believed to have been built by Sultan Muzaffar Shah in the 15th century. According to the book "Ramesh Joshi Imarat Ane Avshesho - Baroda Nagari No Prachin Itihas," there is a Brahmini inscription on one of the lower floors. The name "Navlakhi" comes from the fact that nine lakh gold coins were spent on its construction. Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III later restored it. Initially, it supplied water to Laxmi Vilas Palace and now provides water to the golf course. SEVASI VAV Another beautiful st...

Hello everyone, and welcome to my 43rd blog post. Today, let's discuss a crucial aspect of our lives that often goes undiscussed due to the weight it carries. However, let's not make it a big deal. This aspect plays a vital role in all our lives - mental health. Deep down, we all experience mental challenges, but we hesitate to share or find the right people to talk to. It's often the challenges and failures in life that lead us to mental issues and, in some cases, even depression. Have you ever wondered why many people experience depression? There are common reasons, such as unmet expectations and the disappointment that follows. I agree that unfulfilled expectations can indeed contribute to mental health issues. During my own struggle with this phase, I felt like a burden on others and questioned what I should do next. I needed the courage to make decisions. One valuable lesson I learned is that you are always with yourself. Consider this: are your parents with you everyw...

Hello everyone, and welcome to my 41st blog post! I hope you're doing well. Today, we'll continue our series on "My City." If you haven't seen the previous blogs in this series, you can find them on my website. Now, let's delve into one of the most famous and cherished places in Vadodara – the Laxmi Vilas Palace. This iconic structure was built by Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III in 1890 and is currently valued at approximately ₹24,000 crores. The main architect behind this grandeur was Major Charles Mant. The entire palace showcases the Indo-Saracenic Revival architecture. Remarkably, it is four times the size of Buckingham Palace and sprawls across an area of approximately 500 acres. During its construction, the palace boasted many modern amenities, including elevators, and its interior resembled that of a large European country house. In the 1930s, Maharaja Pratapsinh had a special golf course constructed for European guests. Interestingly, his grandson Samar...

Hello everyone, and welcome to my 41st blog post! With a new blog comes a new beginning. I've started this blog to share insights about my city. If you missed my previous parts, you can find them on my website. Let's dive in! If you're in Vadodara, it's impossible not to have seen Mandavi Gate. The name Mandavi itself signifies mandap. In 1511, when Khalil Khan became the emperor of Gujarat, he commissioned the construction of Mandvi Gate. Initially, this structure had only two floors. Over the passing years, Ganpatrao Gaekwad, the king of the Gaekwad dynasty, expanded it to four floors. On top of the gate, Gaekwad's flag proudly waved. Back then, this gate was used for tax collection and making important announcements. It held such a royal status that only royal elephants and cars, including the royals' carriages, were allowed to pass through. Mandvi Gate has been a center of attraction since its early years and continues to be one today. If you ever visit Vado...
