Miyawaki Forest

Miyawaki is a technique pioneered by Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki that helps build dense, native forests in a short time. It has revolutionized the concept of urban afforestation by turning backyards into mini-forests. This method includes planting trees (only native species) as close as possible in the same area which not only saves space, but the planted saplings also support each other in growth and block sunlight reaching the ground, thereby preventing the growth of weed. The saplings become maintenance-free (self-sustainable) after the first three years. This approach is supposed to ensure that plant growth is 10 times faster and the resulting plantation is 30 times denser than usual. Miyawaki method helps to create a forest in just 2 to 3 years, while through conventional methods it takes anywhere between 20 to 30 years. Miyawaki Forest is being developed at Ekta Nagar adjacent to SSNNL Circuit House hill, near to Ekta Mall in an area of 2 acres. The said forest will comprise of following sections:

A couple of years ago, Gujarat opened one of the biggest touristic getaways ever made in our country – the Statue of Unity! Yes, the world’s tallest Statue – that of the great Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel situated on the banks of the river Narmada opened itself for visitors. But since the Statue of Unity is located in a relatively remote area in Gujarat, to lure Indian and foreign tourists, the tourism ministry went above and beyond. It developed a vast number of tourist attractions near the Statue of Unity.

Thus, today there are plenty of things to do at Statue of Unity for all types of tourists. In fact, tourists can easily plan a 2 days trip to the Statue of Unity. Spending a few days allows tourists to do full justice to all the activities at Statue of Unity.

But what should those that only want to spend a day at the Statue of Unity do? Does it make sense to visit the Statue of Unity on a day trip? Which Statue of Unity attractions to visit and which ones to avoid when spending just a day at the Statue of Unity? The burning question is essentially – how to spend a day at the Statue of Unity!

A day at the Statue of Unity should ideally be spent visiting the Statue of Unity and its museum during one half of the day and a nearby attraction in the other half of the day. If you can stay at the Statue of Unity a bit longer, you should also watch the light and sound show and check out the Unity Glow Garden at night.

So in this article, I will give you complete information on spending a day at the Statue of Unity, the best Statue of Unity itinerary and lots of useful information that will empower you to plan a perfect day trip to the SoU!

Statue of Unity: Essential Visitor Information

Nearest cities:.

By road : Statue of Unity is just 2 hours away from Vadodara and 3.5 hours away from Ahmedabad. You can easily plan a day trip to Statue of Unity from either of these popular Gujarat cities. In fact, I strongly recommend you to add a trip to the Statue of Unity when you visit Gujarat instead of planning a standalone trip to the Statue of Unity.

By train : The closest station to the Statue of Unity is Kevadiya. It is just 5 minutes away from the Statue of Unity.

Ticket Price:

There are four types of tickets for the Statue of Unity:

Basic SoU Entry Ticket (Rs. 150), SoU Viewing Gallery Ticket (Rs. 380), SoU Express Entry (Rs. 1030) and SoU Foreigner VG (Rs. 1530).

I recommend you to buy the Basic SoU Entry Ticket. To know why I recommend buying this ticket and the inclusions and exclusions of each type of SoU ticket, check out my detailed guide on planning a Statue of Unity trip here . (Don’t worry, it opens in a new tab, and it’s okay if you read it after you are done reading this post!)

Remember that you must book your tickets online or using the app only. (Again, you should check out my post on SoU trip planning to avoid making any basic mistakes)

The Statue of Unity is open on all days except Monday between 8 am and 6 pm. The timings of most of the other attractions are also the same as that of the Statue of Unity.

However, the light and sound show takes place after sunset; therefore, the timings of the show vary depending on the season. i.e. in summers, it takes place a bit later than in winters due to late sunsets.

Best Season:

The best time to visit the Statue of Unity is between November and February. The weather is pleasant and the temperatures stay around 25-30 degrees celsius during the day and around 15-20 degrees celsius at night.

Avoid summers as the Statue of Unity area sees temperatures rise beyond 40 degrees celsius.

A day at the Statue of Unity: A Perfect Itinerary

Book the first or the last slot for visiting the sou..

How you spend your day at the Statue of Unity depends entirely on what slot you book for your visit to the actual Statue and its museum.

If you can reach the SoU area super early (by 7:30 am), book the first slot of the day, i.e. the 8 am to 10 am slot.

If you can’t reach by 7:30 am, the best time slot to visit statue of unity is the last slot. So book the last slot of the day, i.e. the 4 pm to 6 pm slot.

Let me reiterate, book your tickets online or on the app well in advance. You will disappoint yourself big time if you forget this part. So, let me highlight it once more for those skimming through this post – Book your tickets in advance .

Park your vehicle near the Statue of Unity Ticket Counter

(Approx time: 10 minutes)

Park your vehicle or let your driver park your vehicle in the parking lot close to the ticket counter. The walk from the parking lot to the ticket counter and then from the ticket counter to the bus depot can take up to 10-15 minutes depending on where you get a parking slot, how fast you walk and how much rush there is. Therefore, it is important to factor in this time.

Leave large bags inside the car. Avoid carrying food, water and other prohibited items along. (Baby food carried in a small bag is allowed)

Have a sumptuous breakfast

(Approx time: 30 minutes)

Now that you’ve parked your car or asked your driver to park the car for you don’t rush to the bus stop. Have a hearty breakfast at one of the food joints near the Ticket counter. I recommend you to eat at the Amul Food Plaza. It is usually less crowded, and the food is quite delicious.

Do not skip this step. You are not allowed to carry food inside the SoU Complex and unless you want to see the majestic Statue and the museum underneath the Statue feeling hangry or utterly exhausted, make sure your belly feels wonderfully full before you make your way towards the bus stand.

After your breakfast, climb onto a bus and reach the Statue of Unity complex.

Visit the Statue of Unity

Now it’s time to explore your primary tourist attraction- the Statue of Unity and its museum. Make sure you spend enough time here. Go through the exhibits at the museum as thoroughly as possible. Check out the audio-video footage shown in its mini-theatres. You will love the engaging experience.

Click enough pictures of the Statue of Unity. If you have the time and the energy, take the escalators all the way up to the foot of the Statue and enjoy panoramic views of the River Narmada and the Sardar Sarovar Dam.

This is your time not only to leave yourself awe-inspired by the sheer size of the Statue but also touched by the message of unity that the great Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel strived hard to spread all his life. Do not mindlessly rush through the complex area.

Note for those visiting the Statue at 4 pm : The general instructions concerning the Statue visit mentioned in this article also apply to you. It’s just that you will have to visit other attractions before visiting the Statue.

Visit 1-2 nearby tourist attractions

As I stated at the very outset, you need to spend one half of your day visiting the Statue and the other half at a nearby attraction.

But if you visit the official website of the Statue of Unity , you won’t be able to determine which attractions to visit in your limited time in Kevadiya. So let me help you there. I am listing down a few attractions below with brief details about them. In my opinion, these are the best attractions amongst all the attractions in Kevadiya. You can pick 1-2 attractions from the ones listed below, depending on who you visit Kevadiya with.

Jungle Safari

(Approximate time required: 2 hours)

The Jungle Safari is not a jungle nor a safari. In fact, it is a zoo spread out over a vast land area. Yes, the land area is so vast that you need to use golf carts to commute from one area to another. But even if it is essentially just a zoo, it houses giraffes and zebras that aren’t housed in other Indian zoos. Its Indian aviary is spectacular. Overall, if you are travelling with kids, the Jungle Safari should be a must-visit attraction in your itinerary for Statue of Unity.

(Approximate time required: 1 hour)

The Pets area is situated right opposite the Jungle Safari and has many pet animals like rabbits, cats, etc. Kids and adults alike can enthral themselves by spending some quality time petting these animals and getting to know them a bit better. Again, a great choice for those travelling with kids.

Children’s Nutrition Park

Children’s Nutrition Park is one of the weirdest yet one of the nicest concept-based parks in India. The park is designed with the primary objective of encouraging young kids to eat healthy food. It hosts a lovely mini-train that’s a hit among young kids. If you want to add an educative angle to your trip or experience a unique tourist attraction, this park deserves your time and attention.

Khalwani Eco-tourism

(Approximate time required: 1.5 hours)

The Khalwani Eco-tourism area is situated near the river Narmada. This area is full of lush green grass and plants that bless its visitors with abundant shade. If you want to transport yourself to the woods, you should definitely check out this place.

The area also features a few tents for VVIPs and local tourists and has a lovely indoor restaurant.

River Rafting

Right next to the Khalwani Eco-tourism, on the banks of the river Narmada, you will find the starting point for river rafting. If you are an adventure-lover or want to immerse yourself in the beauty of the gushing river Narmada, don’t miss out on this experience.

I know that you would still be pretty confused about what to pick. So here are my quick recommendations based on whom you are travelling with:

Watch the light and sound show

After you are done spending the day out exploring the Statue and the places near Statue of Unity, it’s time for you to end your day with the spectacular light and sound show. The show can be watched from the SoU complex or the helipad. But what you must remember is that while buying the SoU ticket, you must select ‘Projection Mapping’ (the official name for the light and sound show).

This is your official ticket to attend the light and sound show. It doesn’t cost any extra amount, but if you don’t select it while booking your ticket, you can’t purchase the ticket for it later, and you won’t be able to witness the majestic light and sound show.

As I said earlier, the show’s timing depends largely on the season in which you visit the SoU. In summers, when the sun sets later, you’ll have to wait a bit longer for the show to start. The show goes on for about 25 enthralling minutes. Keep your cameras ready because the entire area glows in the lights of this show.

Visit the Glow Garden

(Approx. time required: 30-60 mins)

The show ends at around 8.00-8.30 pm depending on the season in which you visit the Statue of Unity. But if you can manage to give yourself an extra hour in Kevadiya, visiting the Glow Garden will feel well worth your time. This garden is one of a kind. It contains many statues or figures of animals, birds, plants and more that illuminate and glow in different colours. The garden opens at 8 pm, so you will only be able to visit it after the Light and Sound show. Kids, especially toddlers and babies, can’t get enough of this wonderfully lit theme park.

After you have clicked pictures of the beautiful glowing night in Kevadiya, it’s time to bid adieu to the world of the Statue of Unity and commence your return journey with a promise to visit the place again for a slightly longer vacation.

Useful Insights for your day at the Statue of Unity

Alrighty! So that was your jam-packed one-day Statue of Unity itinerary. But just a one-day itinerary is not enough to guide you through the day. To make the most of your day trip to the Statue of Unity, you need a few more insights. So here they are:

Food at the Statue of Unity

There are a few restaurants near the Ticket counter. In addition to this, there is a lovely food court inside the Statue of Unity complex as well. All the other attractions have a small cafeteria or an in-house restaurant. But if you are on a day trip, it is best to eat a hearty breakfast and then treat yourself to delightful snacks along the way and at nearby attractions.

Internal commute at the Statue of Unity

I have to admit that I wasn’t pleased with the whole concept of exclusively using the SoU shuttle services to visit nearby attractions. Using the shuttles involves waiting in long queues or, at times, just standing amidst large disorganized crowds trying to cram ourselves inside a bus. The shuttles easily eat up 1-1.5 hours of your total travel time and prove extremely tiring. So brace yourself for the commute and plan your attractions accordingly.

Facilities for those travelling with kids and senior citizens

The area has several cafes, restaurants and washrooms. The SoU complex is also wheelchair accessible. But the compulsion to use internal shuttles is a huge pain point for those travelling with babies, toddlers and senior citizens. Waiting in queues can easily irritate impatient toddlers. Those with babies will find it hard to stand in long queues waiting for the bus. Senior citizens may also find it hard to get inside buses where the crowds are not organized and may eventually lose interest. But the only way of moving past this inconvenience is by preparing yourself for it:

• Either plan on a longer visit to the Statue of Unity so that if you get tired, you can always head back to your hotel or tent and rest it out or
• Avoid visiting nearby attractions and only visit the Statue of Unity. For this, it will be ideal to book an evening 4-6 pm slot, watch the light and sound show and head back.

FAQs – One Day Trip to Statue of Unity

How many days required to visit statue of unity.

To do justice to the Statue of Unity and the places near statue of Unity, it is best to plan a minimum of a 2-day trip to Statue of Unity. But if you only want to see the SoU and attractions in the campus, a 1 day trip to Statue of Unity is also worth it.

how much time it takes to visit statue of unity?

It takes two hours to visit the Statue of Unity, the museum and the viewing gallery. This does not include the time spent at the light and sound show in the evening. The other Statue of Unity attractions can be visited in the remaining days you spend in Kevadiya.

how to go to statue of unity from mumbai?

The best way to go to Statue of Unity from Mumbai is by a direct train that runs between Dadar and Kevadiya. Alternatively, you can take a flight to Vadodara and then reach SoU by road in 2 hours. You can even go all the way by car which takes about 7-8 hours.

Final Thoughts

So there you go! I have shared all the information I had on visiting the Statue of Unity in 1 day. I hope you find it useful.

What travelers are saying.

Khabarovsk Krai

Administrative divisions, heavy industry, demographics, ethnic groups, settlements, sister relations, external links.

Being dominated by the Siberian High winter cold, the continental climates of the krai see extreme freezing for an area adjacent to the sea near the mid-latitudes, but also warm summers in the interior. The southern region lies mostly in the basin of the lower Amur River , with the mouth of the river located at Nikolaevsk-on-Amur draining into the Strait of Tartary , which separates Khabarovsk Krai from the island of Sakhalin . The north occupies a vast mountainous area along the coastline of the Sea of Okhotsk , a marginal sea of the Pacific Ocean . Khabarovsk Krai is bordered by Magadan Oblast to the north; Amur Oblast , Jewish Autonomous Oblast , and the Sakha Republic to the west; Primorsky Krai to the south; and Sakhalin Oblast to the east.

The population consists of mostly ethnic Russians , but indigenous people of the area are numerous, such as the Tungusic peoples ( Evenks , Negidals , Ulchs , Nanai , Oroch , Udege ), Amur Nivkhs , and Ainu . [10]

Khabarovsk Krai shares its borders with Magadan Oblast in the north; with the Sakha Republic and Amur Oblast in the west; with the Jewish Autonomous Oblast , China ( Heilongjiang ), and Primorsky Krai in the south; and is limited by the Sea of Okhotsk in the east. In terms of area, it is the fourth-largest federal subject within Russia. Major islands include the Shantar Islands .

Taiga and tundra in the north, swampy forest in the central depression, and deciduous forest in the south are the natural vegetation in the area. The main rivers are the Amur , Amgun , Uda , and Tugur , among others. There are also lakes such as Bokon , Bolon , Chukchagir , Evoron , Kizi , Khummi , Orel , and Udyl , among others. [11]

Khabarovsk Krai has a severely continental climate with its northern areas being subarctic with stronger maritime summer moderation in the north. In its southerly areas, especially inland, annual swings are extremely strong, with Khabarovsk itself having hot, wet, and humid summers which rapidly transform into severely cold and long winters, where temperatures hardly ever go above freezing. This is because of the influence of the East Asian monsoon in summer and the bitterly cold Siberian High in winter. The second-largest city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur has even more violent temperature swings than Khabarovsk, with winter average lows below −30   °C (−22   °F) , but in spite of this, avoiding being subarctic because of the significant heat in summer.

The main mountain ranges in the region are the Bureya Range , the Badzhal Range (highest point 2,221 metres (7,287   ft) high, the Gora Ulun ), the Yam-Alin , the Dusse-Alin , the Sikhote-Alin , the Dzhugdzhur Mountains , the Kondyor Massif , as well as a small section of the Suntar-Khayata Range , the Yudoma-Maya Highlands , and the Sette-Daban in the western border regions. The highest point is 2,933 metres (9,623   ft) high, Berill Mountain . [12] [13]

There are a number of peninsulas along the krai's extensive coast, the main ones being (north to south) the Lisyansky Peninsula , Nurki Peninsula , Tugurskiy Peninsula , and the Tokhareu Peninsula .

The main islands of Khabarovsk Krai (north to south) are Malminskiye Island , the Shantar Islands , Menshikov Island , Reyneke Island (Sea of Okhotsk) , Chkalov Island , Baydukov Island , and the Chastye Islands . The island of Sakhalin (Russia's largest) is administered separately as Sakhalin Oblast , along with the Kuril Islands .

The charts below detail climate averages from various locations in the krai. Khabarovsk is set near the Chinese border at a lower latitude far inland, while Komsomolsk-on-Amur being further downstream on the Amur river at a higher latitude. Sovetskaya Gavan and Okhotsk are coastal settlements in the deep south and far north, respectively.

According to various Chinese and Korean records, the southern part of Khabarovsk Krai was originally occupied by one of the five semi-nomadic Shiwei , the Bo Shiwei tribes, and the Black Water Mohe tribes living, respectively, on the west and the east of the Bureya and the Lesser Khingan ranges.

In 1643, Vassili Poyarkov 's boats descended the Amur , returning to Yakutsk by the Sea of Okhotsk and the Aldan River , and in 1649–1650, Yerofey Khabarov occupied the banks of the Amur. The resistance of the Chinese, however, obliged the Cossacks to quit their forts, and by the Treaty of Nerchinsk (1689), Russia abandoned its advance into the basin of the river.

Although the Russians were thus deprived of the right to navigate the Amur River, the territorial claim over the lower courses of the river was not settled in the Treaty of Nerchinsk of 1689. The area between the Uda River and the Greater Khingan mountain range (i.e. most of Lower Amuria) was left undemarcated and the Sino-Russian border was allowed to fluctuate. [20] [21]

Later in the nineteenth century, Nikolay Muravyov conducted an aggressive policy with China by claiming that the lower reaches of the Amur River belonged to Russia . In 1852, a Russian military expedition under Muravyov explored the Amur, and by 1857, a chain of Russian Cossacks and peasants had been settled along the whole course of the river. In 1858, in the Treaty of Aigun , China recognized the Amur River downstream as far as the Ussuri River as the boundary between Russia and the Qing Empire, and granted Russia free access to the Pacific Ocean. [22] The Sino-Russian border was later further delineated in the Treaty of Peking of 1860 when the Ussuri Territory (the Maritime Territory ), which was previously a joint possession, became Russian. [23]

Khabarovsk Krai was established on 20 October 1938, when the Far Eastern Krai was split into the Khabarovsk and Primorsky Krais . [24] Kamchatka Oblast , which was originally subordinated to the Far Eastern Krai, fell under the Jurisdiction of Khabarovsk Krai, along with its two National Okrugs, Chukotka and Koryak . In 1947, the northern part of Sakhalin was removed from the Krai to join the southern part and form Sakhalin Oblast . In 1948, parts of its southwestern territories were removed from the Krai to form Amur Oblast . In 1953, Magadan Oblast was established from the northern parts of the Krai and was given jurisdiction over Chukotka National Okrug, which was originally under the jurisdiction of Kamchatka oblast. In 1956, Kamchatka Oblast became its own region and took Koryak National Okrug with it. The Krai took its modern form in 1991, just before the USSR's collapse when the Jewish Autonomous Oblast was created within its territory. On 24 April 1996, Khabarovsk signed a power-sharing agreement with the federal government, granting it autonomy. [25] This agreement would be abolished on 12 August 2002. [26]

During the Soviet period, the high authority in the oblast was shared between three persons: The first secretary of the Khabarovsk CPSU Committee (who, in reality, had the biggest authority), the chairman of the oblast Soviet (legislative power), and the Chairman of the oblast Executive Committee (executive power). Since 1991, CPSU lost all the power, and the head of the Oblast administration, and eventually the governor, was appointed/elected alongside elected regional parliament .

The Charter of Khabarovsk Krai is the fundamental law of the krai. The Legislative Duma of Khabarovsk Krai is the regional standing legislative (representative) body. The Legislative Duma exercises its authority by passing laws, resolutions, and other legal acts and by supervising the implementation and observance of the laws and other legal acts passed by it. The highest executive body is the Krai Government, which includes territorial executive bodies, such as district administrations, committees, and commissions that facilitate development and run the day to day matters of the province. The Krai Administration supports the activities of the Governor , who is the highest official and acts as guarantor of the observance of the Charter in accordance with the Constitution of Russia .

On 9 July 2020, the governor of the region, Sergei Furgal , was arrested and flown to Moscow. The 2020 Khabarovsk Krai protests began on 11 July 2020, in support of Furgal. [27]

Khabarovsk Krai is the most industrialized territory of the Far East of Russia, producing 30% of the total industrial products in the Far Eastern Economic Region.

The machine construction industry consists primarily of a highly developed military–industrial complex of large-scale aircraft- and shipbuilding enterprises. [28] The Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Production Association is currently among the krai's most successful enterprises, and for years has been the largest taxpayer of the territory. [28] Other major industries include timber-working and fishing , along with metallurgy in the main cities. Komsomolsk-on-Amur is the iron and steel centre of the Far East; a pipeline from northern Sakhalin supplies the petroleum-refining industry in the city of Khabarovsk . In the Amur basin, there is also some cultivation of wheat and soybeans . The administrative centre , Khabarovsk, is at the junction of the Amur River and the Trans-Siberian Railway .

The region's mineral resources are relatively underdeveloped. Khabarovsk Krai contains large gold mining operations (Highland Gold, Polus Gold), a major but low-grade copper deposit being explored by IG Integro Group , and a world-class tin district which was a major contributor to the Soviet industrial complex and is currently being revitalised by Far Eastern Tin (Festivalnoye mine) and by Sable Tin Resources Archived March 13, 2017, at the Wayback Machine , which is developing the Sable Tin Deposit (Sobolinoye) , a large high-grade deposit, 25   km from Solnechny town.

For the 2015 games, twenty-one teams originally were expected, which would have been four more than the record-making seventeen from the 2014 tournament , but eventually, only sixteen teams came. The A Division of the 2018 Bandy World Championship was again to be played in Khabarovsk. [42]
