Fusion of Islamic and Hindu heritage

The park is not just a collection of monuments; it’s a reflection of India’s history. Built during the reign of Sultan Mahmud Begada in the 15th century, Champaner was once the flourishing capital of Gujarat. The influence of Hindu and Islamic architectural styles is beautifully intertwined here, offering you a glimpse of the harmony and grandeur of medieval India.

Architectural marvels you must see

Walking through Champaner, you’ll find some of the most incredible examples of Indo-Islamic architecture. The Jama Masjid, with its imposing domes and intricately carved pillars, is a must-visit. Their symmetry and precision are absolutely awe-inspiring. Then there’s the Kalika Mata Temple, standing on Pavagadh Hill, a revered Hindu shrine. As you climb the hill or take the ropeway, you’ll enjoy a beautiful view of the sweeping landscape. Don’t miss the Sahar ki Masjid, a serene mosque once used by the royal family, and the Kevada Masjid, surrounded by a lush green garden. The Jain Temple of Pavagadh, with its beautiful carvings, adds to the spiritual aura.
