Things to do on a trip to the Sand dunes of Kutch


Kutch is known for its beautiful white sands and serene dessert winds. Although not many are aware of its culture, cuisine and other magnificent features, Kutch has a lot to offer. It promises to provide an amazing experience with its vibrant colors, rich historical background, intricate carvings, extraordinary art, and abundant wildlife and of course the warm, welcoming nature of the Kacchis.

There are a number of places you must visit if you ever visit the pristine sand dunes.
Little Rann of Kutch, which is known for its wildlife sanctuary of Wild Asses and beautiful migratory birds, is one of the first places to visit. 2 hours away from the city of Ahmedabad, Little Rann is a pleasure to be at, especially for all the nature lovers out there. 2 days in the wild will lighten you up and give you a fresh insight about Kutch.

If you are a fan of history Dholavira is the place for you. It was recently excavated and is said to have been a part of the ancient Indus Valley Civilization, one of the most advanced historical civilizations in the world. Dholavira is located on the corner of the Great Rann on an island named Khadir Bet. The black tar road stretched onto the crystal white sands of the Rann is an unforgettable sight.

The next stop is the Handicrafts Village. Extraordinary artistic embroidery and other crafts are handmade in this region. Women here have exceptional skills that been passed on for generations. Tourists from all over the world come to visit the Handicrafts Village in Kutch and are hardly ever disappointed. You will also find NGO’s working with the villagers to keep their art intact.

One of the best ways to visit the well-knows sites, is by hiring a KutchTour Guide.He will know each and every important spot of the region. Do not forget to visit Narayan Sarovar, Koteshwar, Fossil Park, Mandvi beach and of course the Great Rann of Kutch which runs through India and Pakistan!
