Great Rann of Kutch, Salt marsh in Gujarat, India.
The Great Rann of Kutch extends over 7500 square kilometers, forming a white salt desert that floods during monsoon and dries in summer.
The salt marsh emerged from the Arabian Sea through geological changes, creating a natural barrier between India and Pakistan after partition in 1947.
The Rann Utsav festival brings together regional artisans displaying traditional crafts, including Kutchi embroidery, tie-dye techniques, and Rogan painting.
Visitors can access the salt desert from Bhuj city, which offers transportation connections through its airport and railway station 85 kilometers away.
The region contains natural phosphorescence that creates light displays at night, known locally as Chir Batti, across the salt flats.
