Ahmedabad’s civic body has launched the ₹155 crore Temple Link Project to enhance the surroundings of the iconic Jagannath Temple in the old city. The project includes a 2-km trail connecting historic landmarks like Vasant Chowk and the Ganesh Temple, linking Saptarshi No Aaro to the Jagannath Temple via the traditional Jal Yatra route.
Key features include the restoration of nearly 35 ancient temples, the development of 10 temple plazas and gardens, a heritage interpretation centre, and a multilevel parking facility. This initiative aims to preserve Ahmedabad’s rich temple heritage while improving the experience for devotees and visitors.
