Good museums and textile shopping, but traffic eats time. Two days covers highlights, a week if you want slow wandering.

Amazing food scene, especially the street snacks at night. Old city lanes are charming, but be ready for crowds.

Old city vibes are intoxicating, but the summer heat drains you fast. Plan shorter outdoor walks and lots of water breaks.

Quiet mornings at Sabarmati Ashram were calming, and the architecture everywhere makes wandering a pleasure.

Loved the street food in Manek Chowk at night, chaotic but brilliant. Expect crowds, bring cash and an empty stomach.
