Exploring Gujarat, # 3; Junagadh to Bhuj, Kutch district and Bajana area; Culture, Tribes and Nature

In 2019 we travelled to Gujarat, India. For the time being our last big trip because of the Corona crisis, I fear. I hope everything will return to normal.
But how we enjoyed our trip. Gujarat is one of the most interesting federal states of India but still , but is still one of the least known regions of India in Western India, between Mumbai and Rajasthan. Gujarat has impressive jain temples on hilltops, deserts, vast salt flats with a wide variety of birds, villages with colorful minority groups such as the Rabari, Harijians, Ghats, Ahirs, Dhaneta jat, Banni, Ravari, Meghwal and Rathwa and many itinerant nomads with their sheep, goats and camels.
Gujarat is still little visited. So for those who do not want to meet other tourists on a trip and want to experience daily life in the countryside, like us, Gujarat is an Eldorado. Besides, Gujarat is also known as the residence of the last Asiatic lions.
The third part of our video report starts with a visit to the sadhus in Junagad. Then we travel to Bhuj. The closer to Bhuj, the drier the landscape becomes. The Kutch region has been inhabited for four thousand years and thus has an ancient history around its capital Bhuj. The word "kutch" literally means "island" in Sanskrit. This refers to the time when the "ranns" were closed by the Indus River that flowed into the sea here.
Bhuj was an important trading center for centuries. With its old merchant houses, temples and palaces. Bhuj is one of the most atmospheric cities in India, despite the consequences of a devastating earthquake that struck the city in 2001. A lot of people from the surrounding villages go to the city to shop; so you see representatives of many different tribes in Buij (Rabari tribe woman in black, Dhaneta jat woman wearing the Nathli gold nose ring, etc).
We visit the small picturesque villages were various tribes have settled (Banni and Ravari tribes)who still live quite traditional and pure. In the mud houses (bhungas), you will find beautiful mirrored walls and colorful handicrafts, for which the Kutch region is known. Mud has played a major role in the Banni community for centuries, especially in building the round houses. The bhungas are known for their design and the outer wall is often painted by the women. The women are beautifully dressed in traditional costumes. The local Meghwal community has beautiful embroidery that is expertly decorated. In Nirona a master copper butcher shows how to make and become a copper bell and in Ajrakhpur they show how textiles are processed there (block printing).
At the end of this impression of our trip in Gujarat we are in Bajana on the edge of little Rann van Kutch. Bajana is an important destination for bird watching, but we also make a number of village safaris and visits, much less romantic, a salt factory where hard work is required under appalling working conditions.

VERY STRANGE !!!!! पोलिटीशयन लोग भारत की गरीबी की असली बात छुपाते है । भारत में भयंकर गरीबी और अत्यधिक जनसंख्या की आबादी है (150 करोड़ )। इसमें भारत के लोग कहाँ से सुख की नींद सो पायेंगे !!!!! भगवान ही इस दूनीया की देखभाल करें । धन्यवाद ।

    Hello, what a surprise to find this video, as there is very little information on the internet about this state so thank you for sharing it. Great documental video I would like to ask you some questions as I intend to visit Gujarat in August this year. The first is to know if you did it on your own or by agency, I ask you especially for the area of Bhuj and the tribes, my husband and I will go on our own and I do not know if it will be possible to visit these villages and see the tribes without agency. The other question is how much time you advise me to see the area of Bhuj and surroundings. I would appreciate any suggestions Thank you very much

    What a nice reaction. Thank you. Our trip was organized by a local guide with whom we have traveled before. We traveled with a driver. He made sure we got to the most interesting places. Traveling in Gujarat was easy. If you are interested, I can email you the program. If so, please respond by email. info@travelbyphoto.nl
