SURKOTADA

If you want to witness the red-laterite soil and sandstone hills, this reddish-brown archaeological site is the right place for you. It is also one of the most visited tourist places in Kutch. Possessing horse remains from 2000 BCE makes it one of the most intriguing tourist destinations while visiting Kutch.

Although the vegetation is scarce here with just cactus, small babul and pilu trees, it holds a distinct place for a traveller because it is significant to the Indus Valley Civilization. It is also said that a 750m wide river flowed through this site which is now a small stream.
