点评:Road to Heaven.
26 February 2026, this was the third day of our stay in Rann Utsav Tent City.
As per the itinerary given by our tour organiser, the programme for the day included Yoga in the morning and a visit to Kala Dunger Sunset point in the evening.
None of us was particularly interested in the yoga; we had discussed and decided to visit a tourist attraction known as the Road to Heaven.
According to the description, Road to Heaven is a ruler-straight stretch of around 30 kilometres of jet black tar road traversing through the brilliant white salt flats of the great Rann between the villages of Khavda and Dholavira. This place was about 70 to 80 kilometres and a 1.5 to 2-hour journey from the tent City. This visit was to be under our own arrangements, paid for by us.
When we reached there, what we found was what should have been an extensive plain of brilliant white from horizon to horizon, bisected by a jet black tar road, giving a totally surreal look as if a road is climbing to heaven through white clouds, giving this road its name. What we had was a road running through an extensive lake.
In our visit, we found that rather than a Road to Heaven, it was just part of a state road from Khavda to Dholavira.
Apparently, excessive and delayed rains had not allowed the water to evaporate and form brilliant white salt plains.
Another case of right place at the wrong time. It will be advisable to check the condition of the road before planning a trip
The only redeeming feature was sighting a group of Flemingos foraging through the shallow, algae-rich wetlands.

2026年2月26日,这是我们在兰恩乌特萨夫帐篷城的第三天。
根据旅行社提供的行程安排,当天上午的瑜伽课程和傍晚前往卡拉敦格尔日落观景点。
我们对瑜伽都不太感兴趣;我们商量后决定去参观一个叫做“通往天堂之路”的旅游景点。
据介绍,“通往天堂之路”是一条笔直的黑色柏油路,长约30公里,横穿大兰恩盐沼洁白的盐滩,连接着卡夫达村和多拉维拉村。这里距离帐篷城大约70到80公里,车程约1.5到2小时。这次参观是我们自己安排的,费用也由我们自己承担。
当我们到达那里时,看到的本应是一望无际的洁白平原,却被一条漆黑的柏油路一分为二,仿佛一条道路穿过白云直通天堂,这景象超现实,也正是这条路得名的由来。然而,我们看到的却是一条穿过广阔湖泊的道路。
我们这次探访发现,它并非所谓的“天堂之路”,而只是从卡夫达到多拉维拉的一条普通公路。
显然,过多的降雨和延迟导致水分无法蒸发,也就无法形成洁白的盐碱平原。
又是一个“天时地利人和”的例子。建议出行前务必先了解路况。
此行唯一的亮点是看到一群弗莱明戈鸟在浅浅的、富含藻类的湿地中觅食。
