Gujarat's second largest city, which was an important port during the colonial era, was founded on the banks of the river Tapti. However, over the years the river has become unnavigable. Surat is a successful modern commercial with almost negligible western influence. This gives the city a distinguished status of being an industrial powerhouse responsible for Gujarat’s economic boom, while also preserving its historical and cultural status. The city is well connected by road, rail and air.
