The major rivers of central and northern Gujarat include Narmada, Sabarmati, and Mahi. Here we are going to admire mother nature at river “Mahi”. The pride areas of this Indian state come to life during winter, monsoon time. traveling to the pride regions of Gujarat is a celebration of sorts.

In prosperous parts of the world, riverside washing went on well into the 19th century, or longer in rural areas too. You can catch the exact sight of this. Washing clothes in the river is still the normal way of doing laundry in many less-developed parts of the world. You can have a look at the picture attached here – where women are carrying their clothes in a big iron clothing tub along with special tools to the river to help the work: like a washing bat or a board to scrub on.

I was surprised to see what appeared to be human-like forms running or walking quickly with some unwieldy stuff on their heads.
As the destination approached and we reached down near a level crossing, the sight became brighter. I saw more clearly. The human forms were women. There were dozens of women carrying large bundles of unwashed clothes on their heads they headed to the Sindhrot along with other visitors.
When I researched this later, I got to know about the old-age tradition of women carrying pots filled with water on their heads. Which they are going to use for their ordinary work like floor cleaning and washing kitchen utensils.

Additionally, you can have a glimpse of “Fishing Activity” Where a fisherman Clutches the fish with a fishing net so deliberately. Fishing is among the oldest production activities of humankind. Historical research shows that fishing—both freshwater and ocean fishing—was widespread in ancient times. This is something that humanity has performed for at least 40,000 years and it was (and still is) important for survival and quality of nourishment.

While a day spent enjoying a waterway, soaking up the sun, and Buzzards soaring overhead at a great height. sounds like the perfect trip for many. But for travelers, any waterway is incomplete without boating where the location has such a boating sight-seeing option. You can take a boat ride if you can find one early in the morning or evening.

The specialty of this place is that it is the most serene point of the city so watching sunset from here is a magical experience. It is a beautiful spot for both sunrise and sunset, as watching the first rays of the sun is an experience that is quite something else. so, this makes for a unique spot to watch the sunrise. the very sight of the rising sun sitting by the banks of River Mahi will give you goosebumps. The evening view is quite magnificent with the numerous flickering illuminations on the river bank. I am however deeply impressed by the serene calmness of the place. Much less crowded and quite relaxing I say.

There are numerous little shops for restaurants. You get Vadapav, Dal-Vada, Potato chips, corn, seared and simmered peanuts, and so forth. You get to eat amazing food and watch entertaining performances. And, you can also shop for amazing Gujarati dresses and accessories at a reasonable price.
Overall, this is a good place to stop and admire local art. which will help you understand the bygone tradition a little better.
