World’s tallest statue now.
This is the world’s tallest statue, 182 meter tall, now which has been built by spending around Rs 3000 Cr. Despite its location which if far from the main town Ahmedabad, about 200 km from there, it has started to grab tourists attention, more than 15 thousand visitors per day are expected to come here. It has become taller than the Statue of Liberty and the great statue of Buddha in China.
How to Reach?
The statue has been built on the bank of Narmada surrounded by the Satpura jungle and Vindhyachal hills. This is a beautiful background against the statue. Sardar Sarowar Dam is an important landmark near the statue. The nearest town near the Statue of Unity is Kevadia which is 3.5 km away. You will have to cover a distance of 200 km if you are coming from Ahmedabad.
