The festival also provides opportunities to shop directly from village cooperatives, NGOs, and local craftsmen, supporting rural livelihoods and preserving Gujarat's rich cultural legacy.

As the sun sets, the landscape transforms under the glow of the full moon, painting the white salt flats with a mesmerizing silvery hue. This unique setting creates a magical atmosphere that leaves travelers captivated long after they depart.
