Rann of Kutch
An endless white salt desert that turns gold at sunset and silver under the moon.
IndiaWhy travellers love it
There is nothing in India quite like the White Rann - an endless salt desert that turns gold at sunset and silver under the moon. Based at the famous Tent City near Bhuj, this is a region celebrated for its stunning landscapes and living cultural richness, best experienced between a desert sunset and the following dawn.
Ride out to the White Rann by bus or camel cart and watch the sun melt into the salt flats, return before first light for an unforgettable sunrise, and let the Kutch Cultural Show fill the evening with folk music and dance. Excursions to Kala Dungar - the Black Hill of Kutch with its sweeping desert views - and the artisan village of Gandhi nu Gaam, plus the Shri Swaminarayan Temple and Kutch Museum at Bhuj, round out a journey that blends nature, history and local craft.
