Porbandar, India

Porbandar India

Located in the state of Gujarat in western India, Porbandar is a city especially known for being the birthplace of Mahatma Gandhi, which is why it is one of the main destinations to understand the life and work of the Hindu icon. A labyrinth of streets spied on by Chowpati Beach, the Indian's main greeting to this fishing and mystical city where you can delve into the whispers of India's recent history. Most itineraries start at Kirti Mandir, Gandhi's birthplace now converted into a center of homage in the heart of Manek Chowk, one of Porbandar's most dynamic bazaars. In addition to this visit, we can enjoy Tara Mandir, one of the oldest planetariums in India; the pink mantle of flamingos at Porbandar Bird Sanctuary; or the Shree Sudama ji Mandiir, one of the few temples dedicated to Sudama, friend of the god Krishna, who lived in this city for years.
