    It a good place to have events but it's not accessible, there is a ramp on the back. Side but they don't allow the access if the lawns are wet. So that's is discrimination, I have an old association with lions Club and hence never made an official complaint, but I guess with so many Besnus and memorial service there is a need of accessibility for people with disabilities, Senior citizens, pregnant women and for everyone. Else too

    would like to give my honest three-star rating of the store. Overall, the store had some positives and negatives, which I will outline below. One positive aspect ofno no no no no no no 👎 👎 👎 👎 👎 a shopping karwayi the store was its convenience. It was located just a few blocks away from my house, making it easy to pop in and grab some essentials quickly. Additionally, the store had a decent selection of products, including fresh produce, packaged goods, and household items. While the selection wasn't as extensive as larger grocery stores, it had enough variety to meet my needs. On the downside, the store was quite small, which made it hi A MOBILE GAME WHAT WOULD YOUR POWER UPS ground floor flat no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no 👎 👎 👎 👎 👎 a shopping karwayi I am not your gf id 🆔 I am not your gf id capturing a lot of my life partner and I am not your fault for fun 😊 I am busy so I will send it is a shopping mall of my friends😭 😁 😂 😁 I am not your personal worker to you 🙏🏻 😭 he is in the color palette of my life partner 😍 😍 😍 😍 live in hostel with 4 roommate is your name 📛 📛 live in hostel me ladkiyan bhi live near Dhaka to demand to you and your family members I a shopping cart, and tam you have any plot no no no 😭 he layout was not very intuitive. Additionally, the prices were a bit higher than what I would expect to pay at a larger grocery chain, which made it less attractive for more significant shopping trips. Lastly, I found the customer service to be average. While the staff was friendly enough, they didn't seem particularly knowledgeable about the products or able to offer much assistance when I had questions. In conclusion, while the small grocery store had some positives, such as its convenience and decent product selection, it also had some negatives, including its cramped layout and higher prices. Overall, I would give it a three-star rating.

    We can say the centre point of the Vadodara. Yes, you can get public transport easily for travel to the other destinations. In the walking distance there is Tibet market available in winter sessions. Along with it the local market and fun fair are also available. The main gate of Laxmi Villas Palace is situated in front of Kirti Stambh. You can get the famous Mahakali Sev Usad near kirti stambh circle. Vadodara's biggest crackers market is coming to Diwali at Kirti Stambh. Moreover, in the early morning you can get fresh and reasonable fruits and vegetables there. Add to this, sometimes circuses are also available for adults and especially for kids.

    It's my own city and it is Baroda The Smart city so obviously it is always nicest & better than the best every time when ever I visit my Baroda. And so it is my city becomes very obvious that I'm going to praise my city beyond limits, so you ask those people who have visited Baroda for the first time or ask those people who visits Baroda frequently ask their opinion that how they feel in Baroda.

  • 5/5 Payal J. 1 year ago on Google
    Open to all victory monument, placed exactly in front of the main gate of the palace , but due to the road and traffic you don't feel like that. Now it has kirti stambh big bus stop. Many times circus, exhibition or some other activities keep coming to adjacent open ground.

  • 5/5 Pravin P. 1 year ago on Google
    Its haritag place. And also have bus station. Kirti Stambh, one of the most popular landmarks of Vadodara, is located near the Polo Ground. It was built in 1935 to commemorate 60 years rule of Maharaja Sayajirao Geakwad III. The Stambh is made out of pink 'Songadh stone'. It stands tall opposite to the Nehru Bhavan with a lion perched at its top and facing eastwards. Kirti Stambh is also known as the 'Tower of Fame/ Triumph'. Kirti Stambh carries a philosophical value as it depicts Sayajirao's firm decision of renouncing the material, worldly life and thus, moving to 'Vanprasthashram' - the third out of the four ashram (stages) of human life where one hands over the worldly responsibilities to his/her next generation and takes an advisory role, thereby withdrawing from the materiality of the world. The lion perched at the top of Kirti Stambh has his rear part/portion facing the Lukshmi Vilas Palace Gate. This lion, with its rear part facing the Palace gate, marks the Maharaja's departure from his Kingdom and Luxurious Life. Also, according to the Hindu philosophy, travelling towards east is considered to be a way of achieving 'Salvation' or 'Moksha' which is again indicated by the eastward facing lion of the Kirti Stambh. If one examines closely, the countenance of the lion appears a bit old/aged and fatigued and it is about to get up and walk. The Maharaja wanted to portray himself through this ageing lion. There is deep philosophy behind the structure made by prominent artist Krishnarao Chavan and his associates.
