VerifiedGujarat Tourism
WinnerTourism AwardAkshardham is made up of two words Akshar meaning indestructible or the soul and dham meaning abode so Akshardham is, in a way, the place where souls go and attain moksha. It is no wonder that Akshardham temples across the world, starting with the first in Gandhinagar, have become pilgrimage spots for devotees of the Swaminarayan sect regardless of their affiliation to any of the multiple sub-sects within. Akshardham in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, like the other Akshardhams in Delhi and other parts of the world, is more than just a temple complex. It is a cultural complex, an entertainment complex and a place that showcases Indian style architecture. A visit is uplifting spiritually as well as informative and relaxing.
Akshardham is located in sector 20 on the “J” road in Gandhinagar, the planned capital city of Gujarat, about 30 km from Ahmedabad.
How to Reach Gandhinagar Akshardham
Ahmedabad is well connected by rail, road and air to the rest of India. Your best way to reach Akshardham, Gandhinagar, is to arrive in Ahmedabad by road, by air or by rail. You could book a room in a hotel in Ahmedabad and travel by road directly to Akshardham. There are buses plying regularly between Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar with pick up points at convenient locations. You get down at Gandhinagar bus depot and hire a rickshaw to take you to Akshardham. Better still; hire a cab that will drive you straight to Akshardham either via the Sarkhej Gandhinagar Highway or the Motera Road. Either way you will pass the Koba circle and proceed on the outskirts of Gandhinagar to reach sector 20 on the J Road (roads in Gandhinagar are named alphabetically and sectors are given numbers). You pass Indroda, a nature park that is worth visiting on the way to Akshardham.
Points to Keep in Mind
Best Time to Visit
Busloads of pilgrims and tourists arrive here every day and people queue up for an entrance. However, the best place to visit is during winter from November to March when the weather is pleasantly cool. The evening is the best time if you plan to visit in summer but be sure to arrive here around 5 PM because there is always a queue. Wear light cottons in summer and just some woollens in winter though it may not be necessary for the daytime.
