Category: Time in Ahmedabad

We are in Ahmedabad noww!  we were welcomed with a very energetic garba, a traditional gujarati dance. We were ready to travel in Ahmedabad. 
‎
‎1st place we visited was Sabarmati riverfront. People were playing over there. We too joined them. We had a lot of funnn. We didn’t get the on bridge experience though due to crowd. 
‎
‎2nd day in Ahmedabad, we were excited. We visited CEE (Centre of Environmental Education). Saw many varieties of plants. The forest walk was so peaceful and calming. We also had a session on Climate change effects, making us more serious towards it. I also had the best food of my life in Vishaala. They entertained us after the dinner, we ended up joining them too. 
‎
‎Next day, we visited Serenity. It was a library for plants. I tried tree meditation for the first time in my life. it was very peaceful. We discussed water management with Loki. It was so informational. At the end, we also went to the Atal bridge, where we didn’t go on the first day. The Architecture of the bridge did a really good job. 
‎
‎We also Polo Forest. It was my first time hiking, and it was so funn. 
‎
‎We went on a heritage walk! Got to know more about my Indian culture. I found the Pol concept interesting. 
‎Each pol has 5 important things:

‎1. The well. 
‎2. Its name. 
‎3. The Chabutaro. 
‎4. The gate. 
‎5. The Dome. 
‎
‎It categorizes the society so well.

I learn because I don’t want to be like a lamp that falters over time, My ambition to gain more knowledge is why Ahmedabad was my favorite place to visit. Everything in Ahmedabad was a learning moment from the buildings, to the sound of the birds and leaves ruffling, and to the reflection of my time there, Ahmedabad has taught me more about how deep or simple the meanings of even a banister is on a building and how a urban area can have more “green” to it but not everyone knows how to think deep and simple so instead of “green” being normalized in cities and neighborhoods they stamp a “park” sign on it or they name it a “Utopia” or “Paradise” when all these words and visuals could be put in as just apart of the urban life, but Ahmedabad doesn’t need to stamp on a name to seem like a green paradise because you’ll see plants that learned to grow up the store buildings, and plants that are potted and maintained because a plants way of learning is just as important as a human learning to not leave a negative footprint so we can improve the impact of climate change.
