Patang, the revolving hotel connecting old and new Ahmedabad, has reopened. The construction of this hotel, which is being mapped with laser light, is linked to the historic World Cup of 1983.
This hotel was started in Ahmedabad only after former captain Kapil Dev won the World Cup for India for the first time. Now that the World Cup has returned to India after 12 years, this hotel has been given a new look. Actor Sunil Shetty has inaugurated this new hotel. The renovation of the hotel took a total of four years and cost Rs 22 crore. This hotel built on the Sabarmati coast has a Japanese motor which rotates and a beautiful view of the old and new Ahmedabad can be seen.
