Rann Utsav 2019 - Gujarat Tourism

[Ujjwal Kumar]

The literal meaning of Rann is “Desert” which is the USP of Kutch. The white landmass stretches up to 7500kms sharing a part of its space with Pakistan. Post monsoon, the land is left with white salt which turns into a salt desert for rest of the year. You can only visualize the white salt desert beneath your feet and the unlimited blue sky overhead thus relaxing you with a feeling of peace and tranquility. The beauty magnifies when the scene accompanies light of the blue moon. The place fascinated the tourists and as a result, it became famous among the locals first and then among the tourists who congregate in large number, every year, to experience this unmatchable beauty.
