  1. Like I said earlier, its clean. But you shouldnt want to go just for the fun of it, educate yourself while you're there. Learn about the culture. I wish I could go.

    Tourist attractions... hmm...

    Dutch Garden - The ancient Dutch gardens, the Dutch cemetery and Makaipul, the ancient original port from where the ships sailed to other parts of the world are other attractions.

    Old Fort - The Old Fort was built by Muhammed Tughlak in the 14th century to fortify the defence against the Bhils. It is now used for municipal offices.
