varied cultural ethos of the region is known for the ethnic flavor and
celebrative zest. This festival provides an exclusive opportunity to witness

The best recommendation is between
January till mid February, even though people say between October and March. We
had been there for one day’s trip on 1st of March and realized that
it starts getting hot. So it may be good for one day’s trip. If you want to
stay for two to three days then better come between January till mid February.

popular one.
To name a few more, the government of Gujarat
has set up the Toran Rann Resort which is near to the entrance of salt
desert. Also you can choose to stay in Shaam-e-Sarhad Resort in
Hodka.
You need to have a good budget as all this is
little expensive, providing you air-conditioned double bedroom including food
