Hey everybody i hope everyone is doing super well. Today I am going to share one of the 2nd grand meet-up i attended hosted by our connect moderator @NareshDarji I am so thankful that I was invited to attend this event. 

I traveled 300km by train to attend this meet -up.
After reaching I was greeted by our host and was introduced to several local guides some local guides knew from my last meet- up.

After the introduction we headed for lunch very nice management was done by our Gujarat local guide team.
Food was super delicious and service was up to the mark. After a great lunch we headed to a luxurious LAXMI V ILAS PALACE   which is now converted into a museum.

A photo of the palace clicked by the lg (pratik_89 - level-8)

It was built  by King Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad  in the 1890s

The interior photography was prohibited so i will share the outer area of the palace still we were allowed some of the areas where we could clicked.

The tour of the palace nearly took 45 mins to 1 hour.

The palace was furnished with Italian and Rome style you could literally make out through the windows.

To make this meet up more interesting one of our local guide @Tejal  had organized a quiz game which made the meet up more fun loving.
