White Desert

Reviewed By Saikat_on_wheels - Kolkata (Calcutta), India

I chose a full Moon day in February. A bus from the Tent City and a camel cart drove us into the vast expanse of the Desert. I walked toward the horizon and it receded from me as I approached, leaving only the white crust of salt all around me. The sight put me into a trance. Never before had I encountered with such an otherworldly sight. The Sun set on the white desert. A strange feeling of smallness crept into my heart before the enormity of the wilderness of The Nature. I got back to the Tent and again, around 10 pm, I was driven into the place with the Full Moon overhead. And Lo and Behold! It is where the fairies land to whisper their mysteries into the ear. I was really hypnotized by the beauty of the Great Desert. The chill of February night didn't touch me.

Great Rann of Kutch

Reviewed By sbdas11 - Leicester, United Kingdom

The entire experience of visiting the White Rann was truly memorable.We stayed at the Tent city for a night and visited the Rann from there . The Tent city stay was brilliant ,from the welcome to the food ( a little more variety could do more good to International travellors ) ,entertainment ,amenities (there are cycles,carts,ziplines ,para motoring ,spa within the Tent city top class . Every morning and evening there are buses taking the guests to the Rann. After a little ride ,you take camel carts to the centre. The view is breathtaking ,white all around.You have local artisans there .There is provision to wear Kutchi attire and take photos.We did that. The best part is the sunset and walking on the salt flat .We infact were a bit doubtful whether the salt flats had formed this year or not.Since we kept hearing that there was unprecedented rainfall in that area.But it was so breathtaking the view around us.So glad we went for a stay at the Tent city for the year end celebrations in 2019 .After sunset instead of taking the bus back to the city ,we took the camel cart and the ride in pitch darkness was thrilling. Rann Utsav and the White Rann together make a truly winning package for anybody.Highly recommended trip for all ages.

Desh Devi Maa Ashapura

Reviewed By 755brijesh - Ahmedabad, India

It’s a nice place situated in the centre of a small town, the road is very tricky though you can reach here by asking some villagers out there, they are very nice they will surely help to reach out there. It’s a small temple though you can seat there because it’s a very silent place . You can feel a good aura here. Just beside this temple you can also find a temple of Hanuman ji also. Both the temples are closed from 1:30 noon to 5 evening. The car can easily go there. The road are good enough

It took me back to movie “Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam” & “Lagaan” while visiting this lovely palace spread across huge land near to Mandvi Beach, Nice time spent to understand the history of palace and best place to sit and enjoy the beauty of it is on terrace! Best time to visit by evening around 16:30 Hrs till sunset
