Kachchh, Gujarat:
entrance to the Prag Mahal in Bhuj
Following my adventurous visit to the Gir National Park and a long drive via Junagadh, I finally arrived in Bhuj, the capital of Kachchh.
In the coming two weeks, I continued my research which I had to interrupt in January due to some bureaucratic hassle. In the post covering my stay in Kachchh at the beginning of the year, I showed you some aspects of rural life in the area. This time, I was quite busy with work and did not take a lot of photographs. Only one afternoon, I finished early and went to the Prag Mahal. I had visited this main palace of Bhuj already during my first stay in Kachchh in 2008/09, but in the meantime it had been renovated (to see how it looked back then click here!). Now it was even possible to climb the tower and enjoy a great view of the city!
After my work in Kachchh was completed, I took a flight from Bhuj to Cochin in Kerala. There I visited a colleague for some more research and a trip into the South Indian countryside. Check it out!

Impressive! The browns of the pictures gives the feeling that it’s all so down-to-earth, literally!
thank you! It’s definitely a nice place to visit – even or especially since not many tourists come there…
I can imagine it isn’t an easy place to get to, and definitely not touristy, which makes it all the better!
Actually Bhuj is quite well connected! There are for example daily flights from Mumbai and good train connections from Delhi…
