    BHUJ "Ancient temples, tall hills and a deep sense of serenity" Bhuj Tourism A desert city with long history of kings and empires make Bhuj one of the most interesting and unique historical places to see. The city has a long history of kings and empires - and hence many historic places to see. The city was left in a state of devastation after the 2001 earthquake and is still in the recovery phase. Bhuj connects you to a range of civilizations and important events in South Asian history through prehistoric archaeological finds, remnants of the Indus Valley Civilization (Harappan), places associated with the Mahabharata and Alexander the Great's march into India and tombs, palaces and other buildings from the rule of the Naga chiefs, the Jadeja Rajputs, the Gujarat Sultans and the British Raj. The vibrant and dynamic history of the area gives the area a blend of ethnic cultures. In a walk around Bhuj, you can see the Hall of Mirrors at the Aina Mahal; climb the bell tower of the Prag Mahal next door; stroll through the produce market; have a famous Kutchi pau bhaji for lunch; examine the 2000-year-old Kshatrapa inscriptions in the Kutch Museum; admire the sculptures of Ramayana characters at the Ramakund stepwell; walk around Hamirsar Lake and watch children jumping into it from the lake walls as the hot afternoon sun subsides; and catch the sunset among the chhatardis of the Kutchi royal family in a peaceful field outside the center of town. This Guide includes : About Bhuj | Suggested Itinerary | Commuting tips | Top places to visit | Hotels | Restaurants | Related Stories Commuting in Bhuj Tuk-tuks (autorickshaws) are the best way to travel within the city.

  • Geomorphology of Mandvi to Mundra Coast, Kachchh, Western India
    24 Geosciences Research, Vol. 1, No. 1, November 2016 Geomorphology of Mandvi to Mundra Coast, Kachchh, Western India Heman V. Majethiya, Nishith Y. Bhatt and Paras M. Solanki Geology Department, M.G. Science Institute, Navrangpura, Ahmedabad – 380009. India Email: [email protected] Abstract. Landforms of coast between Mandvi and Mundra in Kachchh and their origin are described here. Various micro-geomorphic features such as delta, beaches (ridge & runnel), coastal dunes, tidal flat, tidal creek, mangrove, backwater, river estuary, bar, spit, saltpan etc. are explained. The delta sediment of Phot River is superimposed by tidal flat sediments deposited later during uplift in last 2000 years. Raise-beach, raise-tidal flat, firm sub-tidal mud pockets on beach, delta and parabolic dune remnants and palaeo-fore dune (Mundra dune) - all these features projects 3 to 4 m high palaeo-sea level than the present day. All these features are superimposed by present day active beach, dune, tidal flat, creek, spit, bar, lagoon, estuary and mangroves. All these are depositional features. Keywords: Coastal Geomorphology, mandvi, mundra, kachchh, landforms. 1 Introduction The micro-geomorphic features, their distribution and origin in Mandvi to Mundra segment of Kachchh are described here. Tides, waves and currents are common coastal processes responsible for erosion, transportation and deposition of the sediments and produce erosional and depositional landform features in the study area. Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun and the rotation of the Earth. Most places in the ocean usually experience two high tides and two low tides each day (semi-diurnal tide), but some locations experience only one high and one low tide each day (diurnal tide).
