Where the last Asiatic lions roam and the white desert meets the sky

The salt-and-sea state — Asia's last Asiatic-lion habitat (Gir, ~700 individuals), the world's largest salt desert (Rann of Kutch), and Portuguese-era Diu on the southern tip. Dwarka is the Krishna pilgrimage anchor; Somnath is one of 12 Jyotirlingas; Champaner-Pavagadh, Rani-ki-Vav (Patan) and the Ahmedabad Walled City carry three UNESCO inscriptions; the Statue of Unity at Kevadia is the world's tallest at 182 m. The Rann Utsav (November–February) is the staging festival; Navratri is celebrated nightly across nine days. 29 destinations across the state.
