About Navsari Tourism
Navsari is seen as the
headquarters of the Parsis ever since they settled in Surat. A large number of Parsis are seen to
visit Navsari through the year as this was their first dwelling place in this
state. The excellence of the Parsi architecture can be well understood from the
various monuments built in the authentic Parsi style. The Parsi Vad is one such
structure that has become a heritage site and attracts a lot of tourists.
Navsari is also popular for its various types of Zoroastrian arts, crafts and
cuisine.
Navsari has many different renditions of its origin and
history. The Greek philosopher Ptolemy's writings show Narispa,located on the very same geographical point
as today's Navsari and is perhaps one such account telling us that we need to
look as far back as 150 A.D. for the foundations of this town.
