Two and a half years back, I did my very first solo trip: an unforgettable roundtrip through Gujarat. Exploring Ahmedabad with its stepwells, mosques, temples, and Old City, the Jain temples on the mountains in Palitana and Junagadh, the beaches in Diu and Mandhvi, the temples in Somnath and Dwarka and the Great Rann of Kutch in the Thar Desert. As amazing as it was, two places were still missing: the Sun Temple in Modhera and Rani ki Vav, a stepwell in Patan. Little did I know that they turned out to be the absolute highlights in the whole of Gujarat which nobody should miss!
