Lakhpat Fort

Overall good place to visit once. Be careful as stairs are very risky. View from the top is really good.

A superb and strong fort occupied in a large area is very much worth visiting atleast once in a time. You can have your best experience in photography also. Its a seaside fort where you can have good experience of Rann also

It's old and abandoned fort situated at 123 kms from Bhuj. The property is maintained well by Gujarat Tourism but you will see some plastic thrown by tourists. You can see vast dessert from top of the fort. It's having lot of good location for photography. Covering entire fort will take atleast 2 hours. Only boundry walls of fort are remaining, so basically you have to walk on these walls to get a view. No food and water available, so plan accordingly. There is Gurudwara where you can have food. If you are visiting Gujarat for tourism then this place is must to visit. Though nothing much to see there, views from top and calm surrounding makes it a must visit place. Roads from Bhuj are well maintained and in top condition.

It is getting renovation work after that it will be must visit place in Kutch. 135 km from bhuj, public transport from bhuj is only two times 0530 AM and 1230 PM

Nice village under the fort.lovely layout.combination of temple, mosque and Gurudwara is all here.there are Rann and sea behind as well.in short its quite picturesque.

Nothing much to see otherwise the view of whit desert behind the fort is awesome, and the Gurudwara must visit place.

Lakhpat fort is situated about 135 kilometers from Bhuj, the district head quarters, at the mouth of Kori (Cori) Creek, in the Kutchh district of Gujarat, India. It is an and structure, and was renovated by Fateh Muhammad in 1801. The fort is surrounded by a 40 feet high stone-built wall, which has 4 gates and a large number of watch towers. On one side of the fort is the Arabian Sea. The city of Lakhpat was a thriving industrial centre and a busy port, and a connecting point between Gujarat and Sindh. It is this place from where the founder of Sikhism Guru Nanakji went to Sindh en route his pilgrimage to Makka (Mecca). A Gurudwara was constructed inside the Lakhpat fort which stands strong even today. This Gurudwara houses the wooden shoes of Guru Nanakji he wore during his journey to Mecca.
There are several Muslim religious spots like an old mosque, a Makbara (mausoleum) in the name of a famous PIR Ghaus Muhammad and a Darga. There is also a famous Shiva temple called Hatakeswar Mahadev temple inside the fort.

Lakhpat's fate crashed in 1819, when a massive earthquake hit the area and shifted the mouth of Indus river further north. This hit the industries of Lakhpat and gradually almost all people left the place, and today Lakhpat has become a ghost town with less than 1000 population.
The fort is a station of BSF now.

Heritage, and bravery of our nation in past. Miracle moment. And salute to our army secure the border of our India. Lakhtar fort nearest to pak. Border just 30 km. And sea view is too good

Just historical place, nothing more to see, dry, seasore land with old port which is worth to see once

Thoughtful Place to Visit, nearly 13-14 Kms (aerial) from Indo-Pak Border.
In pic: Entrance Gate in Fort, if entered by coming through Pak

The fort wall is so big and long. The wall is around the village. The view up on the wall is so super especially the sea desert view is superb. There is gurudwara, temples and residential area in the fort.

Lakhpat fort, Historically Lakhpat has been a very important trading post connecting Gujarat to Sindh, the Indian state of Gujarat located at the mouth of the Kori Creek. The town is enclosed by 7 km long, 18th century fort walls.

One of the best place to observe and study Geology. Once a developed port and on the banks of river Indus river is devastated after 1819 earthquake. Gurunanak Sahib stayed here while going for Haj pilgrimage from here. There's Mosque with stone work. Before 1819 Lakhpat was trading hub. Chinese Traveller also mentioned about this place. There r many Buddhist caves. Lakhpat was also known for healthy and taste red rice when Indus was flowing from here. Right now Gujarat tourism with Hunaarshala is providing stay. Else nearest stay is in Panandharo and Narayan Sarovar.

Lakhpat Fort is one of the best places to visit in Kutch, Gujarat.
Here we can see a small town surrounded by a big fort, which was built in ancient times to protect it from external threats.
We can go upstairs on the fort and see the splendid beauty of the 'Rann' meeting ocean.
In the days of winter, it's a scenic view of desert with the fine sheet of white sand.
One must visit this place while on the tour of Kutch.

It is historical place where whole lakhpat village is inside the fort it is most quiet place ever.it is situated near the rann of Kutch and near ind-pak border.one of the best place to see for history lovers.

Well maintained. Fort has inbuilt old toilets. The toilet is like just a hole and covered closely by walls, No doors. No water. No shade. They are built between one fort walls at regular intervals. Good view of Rann if Kutchch form here. People have settled inside the fort. The are inside the fort is very big. Car parking is available inside the fort and car can go inside the fort gate. Climbing stairs and then walking above is very dangerous as the walkway is about 3-4 feets. Climbing the fort wall from outside is strictly prohibited, fine can be imposed or sent to jail or both. Do not throw garbage or spit inside the fort permises, Swatch Bharat.

It's supposedly 50ish km from Pakistan border, so you get to see beautiful horizon. There is an army post on the fort and the soldiers are sweet enough to indulge in conversation. They even lend us their binoculars to view. There is little to see inside the fort but the view is amazing

OK OK Place, would actually not suggest anybody to go there and waste time. Good for History lovers.

One of the greatest historical place of all time. That bcoz its was a major port in 18's. And even Guru Nanakji also visited this place twice.

It was of the biggest port of it's time. And it's population was more then 50k when Abad city was not even born.

It is very near to the great rann of kutchh and also near to ind-pak boarder and awesome place for toutists

Its a great historical place.however there are no proper hotels or accomodation facilities near by.

A place with a rich history depicting the grandeur of Kutch Kings and their affinity towards their Kingdom

Seriously if I could give little less I would have.literally nothing there except for you to travel a lot and see bricks

Unless you are intrested in the history there is no point in visiting this place. It is sheer waste of time travelling all along to this place.

Actually there is to see over there as there is not actual fort but it was just fort wall only.there is guru dwara near by u can have free food over there

Nice place to visit situated near border. It you need to travel aprox 35km interior to visit as this place is last place.

When you're in Gujarat coast line, a good historical place to explore surrounded by nothing but barren land now. Amidst Indian Army built-up and Famous Holy Gurudwara, the place has a story long forgotten but again it's a package visit with Gurudwara being in the spotlight.

Its historical place and its must see once in a life to be a part of the history. Its heritage city also.
