DISCOVER GUJARAT, DAMAN, and DIU Almost wherever you live, you are bound to have met members of the Gujarati diaspora. Yet, Gujarat in western India, where they originated, is hardly known or visited by foreign and Indian tourists. Adam Yamey's richly illustrated book describes his travels through Gujarat and two former Portuguese colonies, Daman, and Diu, with his wife. Her knowledge of Gujarati allowed the travellers to speak with locals and gain their insightful views about Gujarat's past, present, and future. Join Adam and his wife in their adventures through the land where Mahatma Gandhi grew up and Lord Krishna ascended to heaven. Meet the people and discover places whose beauty rivals the better-known sights of India. ++ This book will be of great interest to tourists. It is an insightful personal view of the region rather than a guide book ++ ***** GET TO KNOW GUJARAT AT GROUND LEVEL *****
Between the hills of Maharashtra and Rajasthan to the north and east, the Pakistan border to the west, and the Arabian sea to the south, Gujarat is a state which is unsurpassed for architectural and natural beauties. The book ends fittingly in the isolated region of Kutch, with walled towns, beaches, desert wildlife, and tribes untarnished by commercialism. Gujarat is a great experience that nobody should deny himself.
