Dholavira Archaeological Site

A UNESCO listed Harappan city on Khadir Bet with advanced water systems dating back nearly 5000 years.

Dholavira occupies Khadir Bet island within the Rann of Kutch and ranks among the best preserved Indus Valley Civilization sites in India, inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2021. The excavated city reveals a fortified citadel, middle and lower towns, and an advanced water harvesting system built to survive the region's arid climate. A site museum displays pottery, beads, seals and tools uncovered during decades of excavation. No accommodation exists within Dholavira itself, so most visitors base themselves in Bhuj or Gandhidham.
