Built as a symbol of unity, the Statue of Unity is the tallest statue in the world. Sardar Vallabhai Patel’s dedication toward protecting the sovereignty and unity of India is rightly honoured with this mammoth of a statue in Gujarat. The Iron Man of India, Sardar Patel is the first home minister of India. He had the courage and determination to unite 562 princely states to make one strong country - India.

The world’s tallest statue celebrated its grandeur's first birthday on October 31st, 2018. The Statue of Unity imposingly erected with the backdrop of Vindhyachal Hills and Satpura Hills in Kevadia is a marvel, more than any other global leader’s statue in the world. Every Indian and global diplomat will be proud of the 182 metre Sardar Valllabhai Patel statue.

The Laser Light and Sound Show uses laser technology to explain about the struggles of India. Narration of the Indian history and Sardar Patel’s life, his involvement in the unification of India and the Independence Movement are the core of this spectacular modern show explaining the old world charm. The Valley of Flowers here has become an epitome of eco-friendly atmosphere as the 48,000 plants planted during 2016 is now nearly 22,00,000 plants, accounting to more than 300 varieties of flowers.

The third highest concrete dam, Sardar Sarovar Dam which is 163 metres in India is just after Lakhwar (192 metres) in Uttar Pradesh, and Bhakra (226 metres) in Himachal Pradesh. The second largest dam in the world when it comes to volumes of concrete involved, with a whopping 6.82 million cubic meter aggregate volume. It sits second only to Grand Coulee Dam in the USA that has a more concrete volume of 8.0 million cubic metre. Jungle Safari, Viswa Van, Dino Trail, Cactus Garden, Ekta Nursery, Children Nutrition Park, and Nauka Vihar are other great additions surrounding the Statue of Unity in Gujarat.
