💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in budget guesthouses or desert camps in Anjar or nearby Bhuj (30km away) where rooms cost ₹500-1500 per night, and eat at local Gujarati thalis for ₹100-200, significantly cheaper than major tourist cities
📅 October to March is ideal for visiting Anjar, as the weather is cool and pleasant with temperatures ranging from 15-28°C, perfect for exploring archaeological sites. Avoid April to September due to extreme heat and monsoon rains that can make site exploration difficult.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require a visa to visit Anjar as it is located within India in Gujarat state. Simply carry a valid Indian ID proof like Aadhaar or passport for domestic travel.
