Planning a trip to Udvada

Guys, I am totally FoodieJunkies and a Sea Lover too. I am too much stressed with running business and venture for our dream product “Impala Mail and Messaging Suite“. So, was planning to find a place for 3-7 days which is not near my home town Kolkata ( India ) – like Digha, Mandarmoni, Shankarpur etc. Actually not “nearby” in a single word.

Was watching a movie named Little Zizou , and in the movie found a place named Udvada. Yes yes, I accept that the movie was too good. But, that place name and the scenery haunted me. So, started to researching on that place, as I never heard the name of that town / village before. Found a wonderful history of the village as follow

Quiet sequestered coastal spot Udvada, famous holy place of Parsis in India, is accredited with the most celebrated Iranshah Atash Behram, the sanctified fire temple of Parsis. Udvada, located in between Daman and Valsad in Gujarat state, is a seaboard village and a long-familiar inheritance site and pilgrim center. It is conceived that the fire has been glowing in the Iranshah Atash Behram for more than 1,250 years.

Udvada, preponderantly inhabited by Parsis, is the Mecca of Parsis. The series of events, which altered this ordinary village of browsing places for camels or Udvada into a most sacred place of Prasis commenced in the 7th century when Arab encroachers inhibited the destinations.

Udvada, the most sanctified spot of Parsis, is far-famed for the clapper lacrimation tasty Parsi cuisine. Udvada is distinct from other Gujarat cities since it has a significant number of old Parsi buildings and many are still unmutilated. One of the peculiarities of this cool hamlet is that all lanes begin or ends from the main road. Locals recall landmarks rather the names of the roads to identify the houses of its occupants.

and after more searches, found following video which I think will make you interested if you are Foodjunkie like me.

So – after watching the video, I am sure that I am going to Udvada – even if not any other one is going with me , even if needed , without my wife .

Will update you after the trip. May be sooner………..
