Named a UNESCO World Heritage Site for the first time this year, Ahmedabad dates all the way back to the 1400s, when it was founded by Sultan Ahmad Shah. The city — which is still walled to this day — offers a glimpse into life during a time when sultans ruled. Its architectural wonders include the Bhadra citadel, the fort city, and countless mosques, tombs, and temples.

Even Ahmedabad's current residents still live in traditional homes in gated streets.
