A drive to the majestic Rann of Kutch is the ultimate break from the
monotony of daily life. Stretching across India and Pakistan with
pristine white sand below your feet and an endless sky above. The
place has inspired many books and many romances. A moonlit
night on the Kutch can perhaps unlock answers to existential
questions in case you are seeking any. Soon after the sunset, the
colour of the sand and the sky look exactly the same, merging into a
seamless whole, as if there is no horizon! A cradle of craftsmanship,
Kutch is known for its exquisite variety of weaving, patchwork,
block-printing, bandhani, tie-and-dye, rogan-art and other stunning
ethnic styles of embroidery, pottery, wood-carving, metal-crafts and
shell-work. The land of white desert is waiting, hit the road to
unravel its mysteries.
