The mesmerizing view of the white desert (salt) makes you feel like walking on the cloud. A place must be visited at the right time of the year (December/January) only during the full moon. The sunset and sunrise make a grand view of the place. A must see place in your lifetime.

The Great Rann Of Kutch is located in the Thar desert in the Kutch district of Western Gujarat, India. It's a salt marshy land made up of around 30,000 sq.km of land which includes The Great Rann of Kutch, The Little Rann of Kutch & Banni Grassland. The Rann of Kutch is famous for its white salty desert and it is reputed to be one of the largest salt Deserts in the World. Availed a package trip, so, travel agent provided a deluxe bus for our group of 23 persons. Visited the place on 9th February,2018 in the evening. Best time to visit Rann of Kutch is from December to February when "The Rann Utsab" is held. During the journey, we have found many tented accommodations in the desert and mud houses also for an authentic stay for travelers. As the festival "The Rann Utsab" going on in full fledged, there were variety of food options like chaats, Gujrati snacks, thalis, kulfi, ice-cream stalls. In Exhibition center, there were displaying Gujarati handicrafts handmade by Kutchhi people with a variety of options in clothes, bags & other items such as shoes and puppets. We enjoyed the spectacular views of sunset at that place. To visit this place, you must have valid ID proof which is checked by the army official at the entry point.

Swaminarayan temple is a famous Hindu temple in Bhuj, Gujarat. In the year 2001, due to the earthquake in Bhuj, the original Swaminarayan temple was shattered down but miraculously the divine idols remained as they were without any damage. After that, at a short distance the new temple of Lord Swaminarayan was built with fine quality of white marbles and original divine idols were shifted to the new temple with the permission of authority. The carving of this temple is really very impressive. Its a must visit tourist spot.

Duttatreya temple is built at Kalo Dunger(black hill).There is a legend, that this area was infested with Jackals, people were scared of them. Lord Duttatreya called the Jackals for Prasad of sweet rice after evening Aarti. After eating Prasad they became innocuous. People say that Jackals still come to eat Prasad in evening.
We came there as part of Rann Utsav, there is a lone kirana shop, selling tea and coffee too,that was included in our trip,so we had coffee, good ,but in very tiny cup.
View from the temple is good, one sees the hill and Sunset.

I wasn't very impressed with this museum. It's not well laid out or very informative. The structure is nice to see from outside. The entry fee is 5/- for Indians and 50 for foreigners.
The lower floor has a display of lifelike models of the various tribes in Kutch. I was really impressed by this.
Upper floor has a display of various types of embroidery. There is a display of coins and weapons too
