Anjani Courier Offices in Patan, Gujarat

Patan is one of Gujarat's most magnificent ancient cities, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and former capital of the medieval Solanki dynasty that ruled Gujarat from the 10th to 13th centuries as Anhilwara Patan. At its peak, Anhilwara was one of the largest and most prosperous cities in Asia, with a population estimated at over one million, rivalling Constantinople and Baghdad. The city's decline after the invasion of Alauddin Khilji in the 14th century is one of history's great urban stories of rise and fall.

Patan's most iconic monument is the Rani Ki Vav the Queen's Stepwell built in the 11th century by Queen Udayamati in memory of her husband, King Bhimdev I. This magnificent seven-storey stepwell, rediscovered and excavated in the 1980s after being buried for centuries, is considered the finest example of stepwell architecture in India and was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2014. Its walls are covered with thousands of intricately carved sculptures of extraordinary beauty.

Patola silk is Patan's other great heritage. Double-ikat Patola saris woven using a technique so complex that only a handful of families in Patan still practice it are among the rarest and most expensive textiles in the world. A single Patola sari can take four to six months to weave and cost several lakhs of rupees. The Salvi families of Patan have maintained this tradition for generations.

The modern city of Patan is a growing administrative and commercial centre. It has museums, educational institutions, and a vibrant local market. Patan district has significant agricultural output including cotton, cumin, and vegetables.
