Ahmadabad, the largest city in the Gujarat state, is a sprawling metropolis in west-central India. The city was founded by the Muslim ruler, Sultan Ahmad Shah, and was once the heart of India’s struggle for independence from British rule. Mahatma Gandhi lived at the Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmadabad during that time.
Though Ahmadabad endured a massive earthquake in 2001 that killed nearly 20,000 people, its ancient architecture from Hindu, Muslim, and Jain traditions can still be found throughout the city. This religious and cultural diversity is a defining characteristic of Ahmadabad.
With several textile mills, Ahmadabad is sometimes called the “Manchester of India” after the better-known city in England. The city also has a thriving diamond district. Considered one of the best cities to live in India, Ahmadabad offers an excellent education system, work opportunities, and a well-developed infrastructure.
