A sacred district of Lord Krishna on the western tip of Gujarat, where the Dwarkadhish Temple meets pilgrimage sites along the Arabian Sea.
Devbhumi Dwarka district is located on the westernmost tip of the Saurashtra peninsula in Gujarat, bordering the Arabian Sea and the Gulf of Kutch. Dwarka is one of the four sacred Char Dham pilgrimage sites, believed to be the ancient kingdom of Lord Krishna, with the Dwarkadhish Temple and Gomti Ghat serving as the center of worship. Nearby Nageshwar is home to one of the 12 Jyotirlingas, and the Rukmini Devi Temple is also a popular stop. Bet Dwarka island can be reached via the Sudarshan Setu bridge, and Shivrajpur Beach offers pristine waters and clean sands. October to March offers the best weather.
