Kathiwada also spelt Katthiwada or Kathiwara is the western most tip of Madhya Pradesh bordering Gujarat. This gorgeous flat land valley was coined Chotta Kashmir by former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi for its breathtaking natural beauty.
This erstwhile principality is surrounded by wildlife in its lush jungle atmosphere which hosts the Indian leopard and sloth bear. Rich in cultural heritage, Kathiwada is home to some of the oldest bhil tribe communities and erstwhile Rajputs whose traditions and heritage are well documented and celebrated. The region is also famous for its natural organic mangoes which produces a particular record breaking variety called the Noorjahan that can weigh-in at almost 4 kilos per mango. Modern day Kathiwada is home to 30,000+ people split into 149 villages.
