“The Akshardham Temple is beautiful, so much detail in the carvings. Because it is relatively new, completed 2005, the exhibition set up is excellent, clear to follow and in multiple languages but presented in several sections, so you hear/see in English, move to the next section, whilst people are coming in for the next language, so clever. There is even a water ride, similar to Disney's Small World. Note, NO electronic devices, including phones can be taken into any of the site. Our guide was Mohammed, so thoughtful about routes and seats for my wife who has accessibility problems. Thank you Mohammed.”
