Akshardham:This architectural wonder of 20th century is the most famous temple of the Swaminrayan sect, one of the richest religious sects in the world. The temple complex sprawls across an area of 23 acres and the main shrine stands 108 feet tall amidst lush green lawns. About 6,000 tonnes of pink sandstone was used to create this giant edifice and no steel or any other metal was used in the building. The shrine housed a marvelously sculpted 7 ft. high gold leafed statue of Lord Swami Narayan. There is also an amusement park, a museum, picture gallery and library.
