More Details for Runn Utsav :
 
Kutch is one of India’s largest districts. Surrounded by the Arabian Sea and the salt encrusted desert wilderness of the Rann of Kutch, this district is the last frontier of many crafts and traditions that have changed little over the centuries.

Best described as a cradle of Craftsmanship; Kutch is the land of weaving, block-printing, bandhini tie –and-dye, rogan-painting and various styles of embroidery, pottery, wood-carving, metal-crafts, shell-work and other handicrafts.

The district also has a long history dating from the Harapan Civilization that thrived at cities like Dholavira in the 3rd and 2nd milliennia BC to the Jadeja Rajput rulers who reigned from the 1540s to the merger of states in the 1940s and endowed their princely state with forts, palaces, temple and other monuments of historic and religious importance.

For those interested in natural history, Kutch is the habitat of the endangered and interesting wildlife species like the Indian wild Ass. This district is widely reputated as a paradise for birdwatchers. Besides the reservoirs in the state that are important habitats for water and waterside birds, and flyways for migrating birds, Kutch is also the breeding ground for critically endangered birds like the Indian bustard and the lesser florican.
