Valley of Flowers. Valley of flowers is also known as Bharat -Van. It is spread over a large area. Well-constructed, paved pathways crisscross artistically laid out flower beds for flowering plants, greens of various shaded, and various types of flowering creepers. Most of the flower and plant varieties are commonly found in India. There are plenty of places specifically made as “selfie points”. Towards the western edge of the area of the Valley of Flowers, there is a raised bridge-like structure from where one can have an excellent view of the Narmada River and the Statue of Unity. As one can guess it is called the “Statue of Unity viewpoint”. The complete area of the valley of flowers was like a chequered board with patches where colours ran riot as seasonal flowers were in full bloom. Other patches are vibrant greens of various shades. Looking at all those different shades one simply marvels at the beauty of Nature. The sun was quite strong and except for me, all rested in the shade. I went right till the end and had my photo taken at the Statue of Unity viewpoint.

Brief History: The statue has been built as an ode to the Iron Man of India, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the first home minister of independent India. He was responsible for uniting all 562 princely states of the country to build the Republic of India. About Place: October 31st, 2018, marked the inauguration of the world’s tallest statue – the Statue of Unity, against the backdrop of the dramatic Satpura and Vindhyachal hills in Kevadia, Gujarat.

The colossal monument towers over River Narmada, a tribute to India ‘from the people of Gujarat’ to the leader who placed people’s welfare first. The Statue of Unity overlooks the vast surrounds and the river basin of the Narmada River and the sprawling Sardar Sarovar dam. It stands on the Sadhu Bet hillock, connected by a 300-metre bridge, which offers access from the mainland to the statue. As a part of an outreach programme for the project, the state government had asked Indian farmers to donate their used farming equipment to collect iron needed for the statue of Sardar Patel. Eventually, about 5000 tonnes of iron is believed to be collected. Details of the construction and history of the leader can be seen in an in-house museum, inside the statue.
