Kutch trip planner

Home to India's largest salt marsh, Kutch lies on a flat tortoise-shaped piece of land at the India-Pakistan border. A holiday in Kutch draws visitors from around the world mostly because of the surreal moonlike landscapes that stretch as far as the eye can see. Kutch itineraries also include some of the less popular but equally rewarding attractions, such as wildlife sanctuaries and the ancient ruins that are part of the royal heritage of Jadeja dynasty kings. Many of the traditional villages dotted across the arid landscape destroyed by a 2001 earthquake have been rebuilt since to welcome new visitors, dazzling them with some of India's finest textiles and embroidery works. During a popular winter festival the whole area comes to life, adding adventure activities like hot-air ballooning to the list of things to do in Kutch.
