Steeped in Hindu mythology, Dwarka was known as Kushasthali or Dwaravati and prided itself as the most important spot on the Saurashtra coast. It is said that Krishna, after slaying Kansa fled Mathura and and traveled with the entire Yadava community and founded a town called Swarnadwarika.
Dwarka is derived from "Dwar", a door, and in ancient times its flourishing port was considered to be the gateway to the main land. As "Ka" means "Brahma" meaning, gateway to Moksha. It is called Dwarkamati, Dwarkavati and Mokshapuri.
Dwarka is situated in the extreme west of the Indian state of Gujarat in the Saurashtra peninsula on the Arabian Sea. It lies on 20°22' north latitude and 69°05' east longitude. The city is built on the right bank of Gamut creek.
