Useful information @JSharma
How to reach there? Is the temple open throughout the day? What’s the ideal time to visit? Are there any more pilgrim destinations around?

@C_T @Kunjan811 @rizbab28 @ Good morning and thanks for appreciation. Pse tell me from where you start your journey? Dwarka is situated at the last corner of Gujrat. Indian train is best option as Dwarka is connected from all major cities of Gujarat. Sep. to March is the best period for visit. There areaare so many places to visit in Gujarat. You can start your journey from Dwarkadhish then Somnath temple then Statue of Unity via Ahmedabad/ Vadodara. You can see Gir National Park, Somnath jyotirlinga, Sabarmati Ashram, Rani ki vav, Adalaj stepwell, Laxmi bai Palace, Kankaria lake, Ran ka kutch, Statue of Unity, Sardar sarovar dam etc. Etc. This tour is for 8-10 days. Any other information if required then most welcome

Hi @JSharma
U can’t cover all these places in an 8-10 day tour. Because all places are all over Gujarat.
I am from Gujarat so I go to 1 or 2 places at a time only.

@Kunjan811 hi Kunjan In the last of 2019 I have visited in Gujarat at the said location and cover the same in the said period. Most of the journey performed during night. It is also worth to mention here that some more placed like as Pavagadh and adjoining area of statue also seen by us. I started my journey from Nizamuddin Delhi and also complete there in the said period. Yours welcome

Hi @JSharma
I’d like you to show me something ‘anokha’ in Delhi that is not found anywhere online, something to taste or see, or experience, or just visit - exclusively that only a ‘Dilliwala’ knows…!
Let’s plan something after the lockdown in Delhi or Gurgaon.
I live in Sector 10 near hero Honda Chowk and work in Mahipalpur near IGI airport.
There is nothing in Pune worth mentioning, but if you are religiously inclined there is Shirdi Sai baba, 5 Jyotirlings within 200 km, Ajanta-Ellora caves, and a couple of places in Mumbai like Juhu Beach and a few other beaches in Konkan.
BR,
Tushar

@TusharSuradkar Hi Tushar good day. I am very happy to know about the touring adjoining area of Puna but pleased to say that I have already completed the same. Only 3 Jyotirlinga has left i.e. Mallikarjuna, Baidnath & Kedarnath. I am very happy to visit in Delhi and adjoining areas with you after lockdown. Some of new places in Delhi worth to visit are Signature Bridge, Indira Gandhi memorial, Skywalk at Pargati Maidan, Lotus temple, Iscon temple, Akshardham temple so more
