Kutch region of Gujarat is the best place to visit in the month of February. The name of Kutch conjures an image of wide white salt desert, the traditionally dressed village women, big turban folk singers and camels.

Only tourists who visit Kutch region will be able to cherish the lesser-known gems like Dholavira, an ancient site; Mandvi, an ancient ship-building town; Bhuj, an earthquake-hit city which is developing rapidly and the Little Kutch that boasts one of its kind Indian Wild Ass Sanctuary.

The flavorsome food that is devoid of the overt sweetness of Gujarati food is the highlight of the Kutch trip. Take my advice and give rural tours a chance; the tour will make your Pineal Gland work twice and will help you understand India better. Also, ensure to include Narayan Sarovar and Koteshwar to your Kutch itinerary for adding an extra flavor to your trip.

Highlights

Since February is the last month for the famed Rann Utsav, it is a great time to see the Kutch region come to life. You shall be able to enjoy dance and music performances along with the sight of migratory birds that include flamingos.
