Rani Ki Vav (Patan)
Rani ki vav is located 45 Mins from Modhera in the north direction. Raani ki vav has been built around 1,000 years ago by the queen. It has great architecture and it remains 5 c cooler than the outside environment. The Flood of the Saraswati river filled the stepwell with mud. In 1963 around archaeological department found and dig the entire stepwell in a very well-preserved form. It was so beautiful that you can see the below view in the 100 Rs currency note of India.
It’s 30 km from Patan and it will take 45 mins to reach here. We will reach you at 3 PM here.
Approx duration: 1 to 1.5 hours to see this
Sahastraling talav (Patan)
Sahastraling talav (Sahastara = 1000, Ling = Shivling, Talav = lake) means Lake with 1,000 Shivling. It is in a ruined condition and behind the stepwell. Earlier the water was flowing here from the Saraswati river. Its size is 5 km but it appears very small and ruined currently. It was also created 1,000 years back and dug by the King of Patan during that time.
Approx duration to see this: 10 to 20 mins
Patola House (Patan)
Patola is one type of saree (Traditional attire of Indian women), Patola is famous because of its quality. It is made from pure vegetarian colours which keep the life of the saree about 100 years. It takes approx 1 to 1.5 months to create 1 Patola saree. Only 3 families in the world know how to make this kind of saree. Its price is very costly. Patola house 5 mins away from the Rani ki vav.
Approx duration to see this: 30 mins

How does Patola Saree look like?
See 2 recent photos which came into the limelight. 1 is Urvashi Rautela and the other is Rekha Jhunjhunwala (Wife of Rakesh Jhunjhunwala). Both wore the Patola Saree.
Jain Mandir and Devda Sweets (Patan)
Panchasarar Jain Mandir is a very ancient and beautiful temple. It’s in the centre of the city and has very beautiful carvings on marble.
Devda sweet is famous in Patan and was made in part due to a shortage of water. Now it’s made in the traditional way and tourists try it while visiting Modhera Sun Temple, Rani ki vav and Sidhpur. Bhagwati sweet mart is the authentic sweet shop of Devda Sweet. Which started around 1952
Modhera Sun Temple
2 Hrs a drive from Ahmedabad. Must visit the Temple in terms of architecture and its craftsmanship beauty. I am sure you will be surprised to see in reality this ancient temple which was built around 1000 years ago and still has unbeatable beauty.
Reach at 5 PM here around. Approx duration: 1 to 1.5 hours to see this.

Is Sun Temple Modhera worth visiting?
Yes, the most stunning architecture to see. Personally, I suggest seeing if you really love the heritage and arts.
How to reach Modhera Sun Temple from Ahmedabad by train?
There is no railway station in Modhera village. Mahesana and Patan are the nearest railway stations. Both are approximately 30 km from Modhera. Mahesana is well-connected by train (Ahmedabad – Delhi route). You can reach by cab or jeep from the Mahesana railway station.
How to reach Modhera Sun Temple from Ahmedabad airport?
The best way to reach is by cab (Cost Rs.4,000 sedan AC car). However, if that’s not affordable, the GSRTC bus is a good option. You can book a cab to reach Ranip Bus Station, where direct buses to Modhera are available.
Another option is to reach Adalaj Junction from the airport. From there, you can get buses, private jeeps, and other vehicles to Mehsana every 30 minutes. From Mehsana, you can again take a bus to Modhera.

Modhera Sun Temple takes a minimum of 1 hour to explore. If you want to visit the museum, you’ll need an additional 30 minutes. To watch the evening laser show, allow another 30 minutes.
