Day 1

Sidi Saiyyed Mosque

Built in 1572-73 by Sidi Sayyad, a Habshi nobleman in the service of the Gujarat Sultanate, and a Monument of National Importance. Nobody comes for the mosque as a whole — they come for one window. The jali on the western wall is cut from a single slab into a tree with intertwined branches and palm fronds, and it has become the city's emblem: the Indian Institute of Management borrowed it for its logo and it turns up on everything from tea packets to shopfronts. It is a working mosque, so time a visit outside prayers.

Sabarmati Ashram

Day 1

Sabarmati Ashram

Gandhi's home on the west bank of the Sabarmati, about six kilometres from the town hall, and the place he set out from on 12 March 1930 to walk to Dandi and break the salt law. He lived here and at Sevagram in Wardha for twelve years between travelling and prison, with Kasturba and followers including Vinoba Bhave; the Gita was recited daily as part of the day's routine. It is a national monument now — low buildings, a courtyard, his room kept as it was. Best in the morning, before the school groups.
