Somnath/Veraval is full of lord Krishna. This place apparently was where krishna's brother went underground as a snake.

The main fort of Diu (Daman & Diu) Before this I never knew that Daman and Diu are pretty far away from each other and are not even remotely connected. :)

That hole in the diety(near the bulb) is apparently the hole through which Krishna's brother, Balaram slithered into. No, I did not look into the hole :)

Very similar to Kolkata's ghats, the Veraval area is also very famous for ghats - many people get cremated here and it is considered very auspicious to have the last rites done here.

The Open Air theater has a normal cinema hall also - just in case you need more privacy or if you don't own a car - but it is wonderful to just sit there.

As they say, there are many jyothirlingams in India - some of them are inside the sea and are visible only during the low tide. Jyothirlingams are naturally occuring lingams, and lingam is the representation of Lord Shiva.

The drive-in(Open-air) theater is a huge crowd puller drawing in lots of families - gujaratis are very family oriented people and love taking out time every weekend to catch up on food and movies

Diu can be summarized as a gujju goa :)
ydntn_ydntn:
People get chairs, mats, blankets and even beds ! Anything and everything is allowed here except alcohol, but hey, that's like banned in the whole state :) so any bother anyway. Open air drive-in theaters are highly family-centric getaways..
