Gir is as of now the only and last abode of the Asiatic Lions. Its perhaps not so well known that it is equally well known in the international birding circuit for its blissfulbirding. Watch the snappy crocs after you have your fill of watching the majestic Lions.

Diu nearby has old Portuguese fort, churches and a peaceful beach. Gondal and nearby Morbi are the former princely states of Gujarat with lovely palaces, temples and a unique landscape that is liked by the family

In the northwest, the Rann of Kutch, a dry saline desert habitat of the wild ass and flocks of flamingos in the salt plains. Kutch is technically an island with many wildlife sanctuaries, national parks and princely states. The Indus River once flowed through Kutch – and along the route once inhabited by the 5000-year-old Indus Civilisation – until a massive earthquake in 1819 altered its course, leaving behind this salt desert
